Famous quotes containing the words broken and/or english:

    I keep thinking that what I need
    to do is buy my leg back.
    Surely it is for sale somewhere,
    poor broken tool, poor ornament.
    It might be in a store somewhere beside a lady’s scarf.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    We talked about and that has always been a puzzle to me
    why American men think that success is everything
    when they know that eighty percent of them are not
    going to succeed more than to just keep going and why
    if they are not why do they not keep on being
    interested in the things that interested them when
    they were college men and why American men different
    from English men do not get more interesting as they
    get older.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
