Soft

Famous quotes containing the word soft:

    “Methought her long, small legs and thighs
    I with my tendrils did surprise;
    Her belly, buttocks, and her waist
    By my soft nervelets were embraced;”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    “Though now in her old age, in her young age
    She had been beautiful in that old way
    That’s all but gone; for the proud heart is gone,
    And the fool heart of the counting-house fears all
    But soft beauty and indolent desire.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “O fat white woman whom nobody loves,
    Why do you walk through the fields in gloves,
    When the grass is soft as the breast of doves
    And shivering-sweet to the touch?”
    —Frances Cornford (1886–1960)
