Pieces Drop

Famous quotes containing the words pieces and/or drop:

    I saw
    that from his lower lip
    if you could call it a lip—
    grim, wet, and weaponlike,
    hung five old pieces of fish-line,
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    You must drop all your democracy. You must not believe in “the people.” One class is no better than another. It must be a case of Wisdom, or Truth. Let the working classes be working classes. That is the truth. There must be an aristocracy of people who have wisdom, and there must be a Ruler: a Kaiser: no Presidents and democracies.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
