Blue Socks

Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or socks:

    “Sometimes we see a cloud that’s dragonish,
    A vapor sometimes like a bear or lion,
    A towered citadel, a pendant rock,
    A forked mountain, or blue promontory
    With trees upon ‘t that nod unto the world
    And mock our eyes with air. Thou hast seen these signs;
    They are black vesper’s pageants.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “we want to remember when you were
    money in Massachusetts and yet were wild and rude
    and killers. We want our killers dressed in black
    like grease for we are sick of writing checks,
    putting on our socks and working in the little boxes
    we call the office.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
