Singing Voice

Famous quotes containing the words singing and/or voice:

    “I held a bayonet
    that was for the earth of your stomach.
    The belly button singing its puzzle.
    The intestines winding like the alpine roads.
    It was made to enter you
    as you have entered me....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “‘Stay—stay with us!—rest—thou art
    weary and worn!’—
    And fain was their war-broken soldier to stay;—
    But sorrow return’d with the dawning of morn,
    And the voice in my dreaming ear melted away.”
    —Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)
