Famous quotes containing the words red and/or brick:

    “All those girls
    who wore the red shoes,
    each boarded a train that would not stop.
    Stations flew by like suitors and would not stop.
    They all danced like trout on the hook.
    They were played with.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “They dropped separately after the celebration,
    handpicked,
    one after the other like artichoke leaves.
    After that I walked to my car awkwardly
    over the painful bare remains on the brick sidewalk....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
