Double Laced Blue

Famous quotes containing the words double, laced and/or blue:

    “To be a woman and a writer
    is double mischief, for

    make odes than beds.”
    —Dilys Laing (1906–1960)

    “Time now to pack this humpty-dumpty
    back the frightened way she came
    and run alongnne, and run along now,
    my stomach laced up like a football
    for the game.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    ““... Can poet’s thought
    That springs from body and in body falls
    Like this pure jet, now lost amid blue sky,
    Now bathing lily leaf and fish’s scale,
    Be mimicry?””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
