Mouse Gestures

Famous quotes containing the words mouse and/or gestures:

    When out an old mouse bolted in the wheats
    With all her young ones hanging at her teats;
    John Clare (1793–1864)

    Love, love, love—all the wretched cant of it, masking egotism, lust, masochism, fantasy under a mythology of sentimental postures, a welter of self-induced miseries and joys, blinding and masking the essential personalities in the frozen gestures of courtship, in the kissing and the dating and the desire, the compliments and the quarrels which vivify its barrenness.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
