Famous quotes containing the words answered and/or prayers:
“For every time She shouted ‘Fire!’
They only answered ‘Little Liar’!”

“No prayers or incense rose up in those hours
Which grew to be years, and every day came mute
Ghosts from the ovens, sitting through crisp air,
And settled upon his eyes in a black soot.”
—Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)
