Famous quotes containing the word raw:
“I reverently believe that the Maker who made us all makes everything in New England but the weather. I dont know who makes that, but I think it must be raw apprentices in the weather-clerks factory who experiment and learn how.... In the spring I have counted one hundred and thirty-six different kinds of weather inside of four-and-twenty hours.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
“It began with begging.
In the beginning it was all Gods icebox
and everyone ate raw fish or animals
and there was no fire at night to dance to,
no fire at day to cook by.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“I wish I had feathers, a fine sweeping gown,
And a delicate face, and could strut about Town!
My deara raw country girl, such as you be,
Cannot quite expect that. You aint ruined, said she.”
—Thomas Hardy (18401928)
