Famous quotes containing the words soggy, bottom and/or boys:

    “The cold smell of potato mould, the squelch and slap
    Of soggy peat, the curt cuts of an edge
    Through living roots awaken in my head.
    But I’ve no spade to follow men like them.”
    —Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)

    “On her left breast
    A mole cinque-spotted, like the crimson drops
    I’ th’ bottom of a cowslip.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “These boys who love their mother
    who loves men, who passes on
    her sons to other women;

    The cloud across the sky. The windy pines.
    the trickle gurgle in the swampy meadow

    this is our body.”
    —Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
