Palms

Famous quotes containing the word palms:

    You had such a vision of the street
    As the street hardly understands;
    Sitting along the bed’s edge, where
    You curled the papers from your hair,
    Or clasped the yellow soles of feet
    In the palms of both soiled hands.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    My valour is certainly going, it is sneaking off! I feel it oozing out as it were, at the palms of my hands!
    Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)

    Sitting along the bed’s edge, where
    You curled the papers from your hair,
    Or clasped the yellow soles of feet
    In the palms of both soiled hands.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
