Small Body

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or body:

    “The small sleek one wants to stop,
    docile to the imploring soul of the trashbasket,
    but the young tall curly one
    wants to walk on; the glistening sidewalk
    entices him to arcane happenings.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “The body was still resting on its legs, leaning against the end of the side of the bed, while one of the arms was close clasped round the bed-post. The mouth was rigidly closed, but the eyes were open as though staring at him.”
    —Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
