Strop Quotes By Donal Ryan

Strop Quotes By Kari Aguila

She counts in her head as she passes the blade over the length of the leather, flipping it at the bottom and the top of each pass.

My father is in a new version of Heaven. He hasn't time to consider it yet, whether he is happy because he is hastening along the road with his father as day breaks, or just because he was asked to come and that now this is actually happening, or because he has been asked for a speech from Shakespeare and the phrases are coming like a long golden thread out of his mouth even before he has time to think of them.

While down the craters morning burns.

Where holy brightness breaks in flame;
Radiance reflected in his eyes,
And on his lips a whispered name. — Siegfried Sassoon
