Original Gorilla Body

Famous quotes containing the words original, gorilla and/or body:

    “Painting myself for others, I have painted my inward self with colors clearer than my original ones. I have no more made my book than my book has made me—a book consubstantial with its author, concerned with my own self, an integral part of my life; not concerned with some third-hand, extraneous purpose, like all other books.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “For a tired man who just found a gorilla in his bed, I think I’m behaving very well.”
    —Ruth Rose. Ernest B. Schoedsack. Mr. Young (Regis Toomey)

    “When my body leaves me
    I’m lonesome for it.
    but body
    goes away to I don’t know where
    and it’s lonesome to drift
    above the space it
    fills when it’s here.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
