Famous quotes containing the word locks:

    Many a kiss, both odd and even;
    Many a glance, too, has been sent
    From out the eye, love’s firmament;
    Many a jest told of the keys betraying
    This night, and locks picked; yet we’re not a-Maying!
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    Nodding, its great head rattling like a gourd,
    And locks like seaweed strung on the stinking stone,
    The nightmare stumbles past,
    Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)

    When the rose reigns, and locks with ointments shine,
    Let rigid Cato read these lines of mine.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
