Mouth Shut

Famous quotes containing the words mouth and/or shut:

    A mouth that has no moisture and no breath
    Breathless mouths may summon;
    I hail the superhuman;
    I call it death-in-life and life-in-death.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Because it shut not up the doors of my mother’s womb, nor hid
    sorrow from mine eyes.
    Why died I not from the womb?
