A few more quotes for those who would like them:
When she went by, perfumed and heavily plastered with paint, wearing
loud and garish clothes, in the streets of Alexandria, Beirut,
Constantinople, and saw women giving the breast to their babies, her
own breasts tingled and swelled, her nipples stood out, asking for a
tiny childlike mouth as well.
‹Nikos Kazantzakis. Zorba the Greek. Chapter 19
Greasy-faced children popped-the-whip through the crowd, and babies
lunched at their mothers¹ breasts.
‹Harper Lee. To Kill a Mockingbird. Chapter 16
Judge Taylor was the only person in the courtroom who laughed. Even
the babies were still, and I suddenly wondered if they had been
smothered at their mothers¹ breasts.
‹Harper Lee. To Kill a Mockingbird. Chapter 18

milk for a solar year, with little other nourishment;
‹Jonathan Swift. A Modest Proposal
I think that I shall never see,
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
Against the earth¹s sweet flowing breast.
‹Joyce Kilmer. Trees
