Stayed

Famous quotes containing the word stayed:

“When my lover came to bed,
the knot came untied
all by itself.
My dress,
held up by the strings of a loosened belt,
barely stayed on my hips.
Friend,
that’s as much as I know now.
When he touched my body,
I couldn’t at all remember
who he was,
who I was,
or how It was.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

“Barney McKlennan was a real man. When he kissed you, you stayed kissed.”
—Lamar Trotti (1898–1952)

“my lazy little shadow, like an arrant sleepy-head,
Had stayed at home behind me and was fast asleep in bed.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
