Mouths

Famous quotes containing the word mouths:

“I have sung all night
for the mouths that float back later,
one by one,
holding a lady’s wornout shoe.”

“But listen, up the road, something gulps, the church spire
Opens its eight bells out, skulls’ mouths which will not tire
To tell how there is no music or movement which secures
Escape from the weekday time. Which deadens and endures.”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)

“O God, that men should put an enemy into their mouths to steal away their brains!”
