Famous quotes containing the words june, carter and/or cash:

    In June the bush we call
    alder was heavy, listless,
    its leaves studded with galls,
    growing wherever we didn’t
    want it.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Irish was a man of parts even if some of them didn’t work too well.
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    It seems I impregnated Marge
    So I do rather feel, by and large,
    Some cash should be tendered
    For services rendered,
    But I can’t quite decide what to charge.
