Famous quotes containing the words prince, prize and/or water:

    Daddy?
    That’s another kind of prison.
    It’s not the prince at all,
    but my father
    drunkenly bent over my bed,
    circling the abyss like a shark....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    To become a token woman—whether you win the Nobel Prize or merely get tenure at the cost of denying your sisters—is to become something less than a man ... since men are loyal at least to their own world-view, their laws of brotherhood and self-interest.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    It may be that through habit these do best,
    Coming to water clumsily undressed
    Yearly; teaching their children by a sort
    Of clowning; helping the old, too, as they ought.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
