Suspended Call

Famous quotes containing the words suspended and/or call:

“Faces, suddenly suspended above you;
faces that you think it’s your business to love
if only you could remember their names.”

“I started in to cry and call his name,

Asking forgiveness of his tongueless head.

But whether this was false or honest dreaming
I beg death’s pardon now. And mourn the dead.”
