Famous quotes containing the words red and/or hook:
“And out of her bosom there grew a red rose
And out of Lord Lovel’s a briar, briar, briar,
And out of Lord Lovel’s a briar.”

“A hook shot kisses the rim and
hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop
and for once our gangly starting center
boxes out his man and times his jump
perfectly, gathering the orange leather
from the air like a cherished possession”
—Edward Hirsch (b. 1950)
