Whisper

Famous quotes containing the word whisper:

We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats’ feet over broken glass”

Droops on the little hands, little gold head;
Hush! Hush! Whisper who dares!
Christopher Robin is saying his prayers.”

That at the whisper of Love’s name,
Or Beauty’s, presto! up you raise
Your angry head and stand at gaze?”
