Fancy Mice

Famous quotes containing the words fancy and/or mice:

    “Lord’s lost Him His mockingbird,
    His fancy warbler;
    Satan sweet-talked her,
    four bullets hushed her.
    Who would have thought
    she’d end that way?”
    —Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)

    “will your eyes lie in wait,
    little field mice nestling on their paws?
    Perhaps they will say nothing,
    perhaps they will be dark and leaden,
    having played their own game
    somewhere else....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
