Insane

Famous quotes containing the word insane:

“Were such things here as we do speak about,
Or have we eaten on the insane root
That takes the reason prisoner?”

“What shall we say of the bones, unclean,
Whose verdurous anonymity will grow?
The ragged arms, the ragged heads and eyes
Lost in these acres of the insane green?”

and we do not say why your wild-haired wife has fled
or that my father opened like a walnut and then was dead.
Your palms fold over me like knees. Love is the only use.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
