Famous quotes containing the words broken and/or neck:
“I keep thinking that what I need
to do is buy my leg back.
Surely it is for sale somewhere,
poor broken tool, poor ornament.
It might be in a store somewhere beside a lady’s scarf.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“The wisdom of history, how she takes
Each epoch by the neck and, growling, shakes
It like a rat while she faintly mews.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
