Famous quotes containing the words whitman and/or played:
“The young men float on their backs, their white bellies bulge to
the sun, they do not ask who seizes fast to them,
They do not know who puffs and declines with pendant and bending arch,
They do not think whom they souse with spray.”

“They played the eloquent tum-tum,
And lived on scalps served up in rum—
The only sauce they knew.”
