Famous quotes containing the word comb:
“And still we wear our uniforms, follow
The cracked cry of the bugles, comb and brush
Our pride and prejudice, doctor the sallow
Initial ardor, wish to keep it fresh.
Still we applaud the President’s voice and face.”

Babes, and comb and part their hair
And watch the want ads, put repair
To roof and latch.”

As ‘twere all life’s epitome.
What made us dream that he could comb grey hair?”
