Famous quotes and sentences with the word howling.
1
Hugh Dancy
The little song and dance number at the end - that's me, my voice, howling out. It was a new experience for me. I've never sung before and I've certainly never sung on screen. I think I sung on stage when I was 13 and for some reason nobody's asked me to try it again since.
2
Ted Koppel

3
Frederick Leboyer
This howling mouth, this head which rolls back and tries to escape.
