Baby

Famous quotes containing the word baby:

“For the baby suckles and there is a people made of milk for her to use. There are milk trees to hiss her on. There are milk beds in which to lie and dream of a warm room. There are milk fingers to fold and unfold. There are milk bottoms that are wet and caressed and put into their cotton.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

“Every new baby is a blind desperate vote for survival: people who find themselves unable to register an effective political protest against extermination do so by a biological act.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)

“My faith
is a great weight
hung on a small wire,
as doth the spider
hang her baby on a thin web.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
