Famous quotes containing the words white and/or silk:
“The white hive is snug as a virgin,
Sealing off her brood cells, her honey, and quietly humming.
Smoke rolls and scarves in the grove.
The mind of the hive thinks this is the end of everything.”

Converted into cool hard steel
And right red velvet lining;
While over her tan impassivity
Shot silk is shining.”
