Famous quotes containing the word parted:
“I mind how once we lay such a transparent summer morning,
How you settled your head athwart my hips and gently turnd over
upon me,
And parted the shirt from my bosom-bone, and plunged your tongue to my bare-stript heart,
And reachd till you felt my beard, and reachd till you held my
feet.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“A parted evn just between twelve and one, evn at the
turning o the tide; for after I saw him fumble with the
sheets, and play with flowers, and smile upon his fingers
end, I knew there was but one way; for his nose was as sharp as
pen, and a babbled of green fields.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“You should be alerte, adroit, vif; be wanted, talked of, impatiently expected, and unwillingly parted with in company.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (16941773)
