Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or masters:
“The essence of the physicality of the most famous blonde in the world is a wholesome eroticism blurred a little round the edges by the fact she is not quite sure what eroticism is. This gives her her tentative luminosity and what makes her, somehow, always more like her own image in the mirror than she is like herself.”
—Angela Carter (19401992)
“The eye-balls were seared with a milky mucus;
The madness of a dying soul
Was written on her face
But the multitude saw why she wore the bandage.”
—Edgar Lee Masters (18691950)
