Rusty

Famous quotes containing the word rusty:

    as if in a fog of feather-light
    goosedown-silvery seed-thoughts
    a rusty mind in its autumn
    reviewed, renewed
    its winged power.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Through the hollow globe, a ring
    of frayed rusty scrapiron,
    is it the sea that shines?
    Is it a road at the world’s edge?
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Perseverance, dear my lord,
    Keeps honor bright; to have done is to hang
    Quite out of fashion, like a rusty mail,
    In monumental mockery.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
