Famous quotes containing the words redhead and/or group:

    It was dreadful. They tried to put the little redhead in a cage.
    Sarah Ferguson (b. 1959)

    Once it was a boat, quite wooden
    and with no business, no salt water under it
    and in need of some paint. It was no more
    than a group of boards. But you hoisted her, rigged her.
    She’s been elected.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
