Red Hawk

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or hawk:

    One encounters very capable fathers abashed by their piano-playing daughters. Three measures of Schumann make them red with embarrassment.

    Yellow-eyed hawk of the mind,
    Last evening? that I, who had sat

    Should give to my friend
    A pretence of wit.”
