Mouths

Famous quotes containing the word mouths:

“No spoon has yet destroyed a mouth, but the knife of war cuts portions that are hard to swallow. Perhaps the big mouths of the privileged are able to cope with them, but they dull the teeth of the little people and ruin their stomachs.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

“O my God, what am I
That these late mouths should cry open
In a forest of frost, in a dawn of cornflowers.”
—Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

“Each singing what belongs to him or her and to none else,
The day what belongs to the day—at night the party of
young fellows, robust, friendly,
Singing with open mouths their strong melodious songs.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
