Walter de La Mare Quotes About Lying

Quotes about: Lying

• After all, what is every man? A horde of ghosts - like a Chinese nest of boxes - oaks that were acorns that were oaks. Death lies behind us, not in front - in our ancestors, back and back until.

• The sandy cat by the Farmer's chair
  Mews at his knee for dainty fare;
  Old Rover in his moss-greened house
  Mumbles a bone, and barks at a mouse.
  
  In the dewy fields the cattle lie
  Chewing the cud 'neath a fading sky;
  Dobbin at manger pulls his hay:
  Gone is another summer's day.
