Jamie O'Neill Quotes

Silence Then, A World At Rest. Not The Antithesis Of Dust, Of Speed, But Its Complement. The Gloved Hand Ungloved Its Partner Which In Turn Ungloved Its Mate. Fingers Untied Her Chiffon And Felt For Hair Under Her Hat. Strays Tidied Behind Her Ears. The Chiffon Became A Scarf, Her Hands Reawoke The Wide Sloping Brim Of Her Hat. Gradually The Earth Too Rewoke. Hedges Chirruped To Life, A Crow Bickered Above, The Sea Resumed Its Reverend Tide. Her Hat Was Hopelessly Demode But The Fashion Was Too Ridiculous: She Refused To Wear Flower-pots, And Would Have Nothing To Do With Feathery Things She Had Not Shot Herself.
