Your lean jaws grin with. Lash
Your itch and quailing, nude greed of the flesh.

A Memory Of The Players In A Mirror At Midnight, p. 19James Joyce
Isn't it true that the fault of birth rests somewhat on the child? I believe it's we who led our parents on to bear us, and it's our unborn children who make our flesh itch.
Thomas Edward (T. E.) Lawrence
Two forms of government are favorable to the prevalence of falsehood and deceit. Under a Despotism, men are false, treacherous, and deceitful through fear, like slaves dreading the lash. Under a Democracy they are so as a means of attaining popularity and office, and because of the greed for wealth.
Albert Pike
"The Itch" was an accident. I responded to [co-writer] Billy Steinberg's lyric because I thought even though we set it in this particular story of a girl in a relationship who isn't getting what she needs, it's really a metaphor for desire. Everything just coincided without my realizing it. I was playing Lucy in Dracula 2000, and she's a character who is totally open, sexual and curious and definitely has "The Itch" on many different levels. And it was just coincidence that all this stuff kind of like came together for me. Because I get the itch all the time. And to me that really means something.
Colleen Fitzpatrick
I . . . know how much easier it is to lean on an arm of flesh than on the Lord; but I have learned too how much less safe it is.
James Hudson Taylor
The urge to write poetry is like having an itch. When the itch becomes annoying enough, you scratch it.
