Mouth

Famous quotes containing the word mouth:

“All eager-lipped I kissed the mouth of Death.”
—Gwendolyn B. Bennett (1902–1981)

“Folks don’t like to have somebody around knowin’ more than they do. It aggravates ‘em. You’re not gonna change any of them by talkin’ right, they’ve got to want to learn themselves, and when they don’t want to learn there’s nothing you can do but keep your mouth shut or talk their language.”
—Harper Lee (b. 1926)

“Dead mountain mouth of carious teeth that cannot spit
Here one can neither stand nor lie nor sit
There is not even silence in the mountains
But dry sterile thunder without rain”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
