Big Bend

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or bend:

“... there is ... a big aspect of play in writing novels, and making the story more and more elaborate is just more and more fun.”

“Young, and so thin, and so straight.
So straight! as if nothing could ever bend her.
But poor men would bend her, and doing things with poor men,
Being much in bed, and babies would bend her over,
And the rest of things in life that were for poor women,
Coming to them grinning and pretty with intent to bend and to kill.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
