Red Covers

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or covers:

    His breast was deep and white,
    cold and caressable;
    his eyes were red glass,
    much to be desired.
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    Wishing to get a better view than I had yet had of the ocean, which, we are told, covers more than two thirds of the globe, but of which a man who lives a few miles inland may never see any trace, more than of another world, I made a visit to Cape Cod.... But having come so fresh to the sea, I have got but little salted.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
