Famous quotes containing the words smooth and/or radio:
“We are born with luck
which is to say with gold in our mouth.
As new and smooth as a grape,
as pure as a pond in Alaska,
as good as the stem of a green bean
we are born and that ought to be enough....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“from above, thin squeaks of radio static,
The captured fume of space foams in our ears—”
