Born

Famous quotes containing the word born:

stretched out by some tradesman

a kind of webbing, a kind of frog.
Surely when first born my face was this tiny
and before I was born surely I could fly.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

—Frances Goodrich (1891–1984)

“When you’re born you don’t bring it with you; when you die you can’t take it with you.”
