Tingling

Famous quotes containing the word tingling:

“Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me;
Taking me back down the vista of years, till I see
A child sitting under the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings
And pressing the small, poised feet of a mother who smiles as she
sings.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

“If the heart has its reasons, perhaps the body
Has its own lumbering sort of carnal spirit,
Felt in the tingling bruises of collision,
And known to captains as esprit de corps.”
—Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)

“It is not what we learn in conversation that enriches us. It is the elation that comes of swift contact with tingling currents of thought.”
—Agnes Repplier (1858–1950)
