Famous quotes containing the words big and/or stone:
“Whale on the beach, you dinosaur,
what brought you smoothing into this dead harbor?
If youd stayed inside you could have grown
as big as the Empire State.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“At first your mother said . . . why me! why me!
But she got over that. Now she enjoys
her dull daily care and her hectic bravery.
You do not love anyone. She is not growing a boy;
she is enlarging a stone to wear around her neck.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
