Caught Carrying

Famous quotes containing the words caught and/or carrying:

    “A girl I had, but she followed another,
    Money I had, and it went in the night,
    Strong drink I had, and it brought me to sorrow,
    But a good strong cause and blows are delight.”
    All there caught up the tune:
    “On, on, my darling man.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    My mother learned that she was carrying me at about the same time the Second World War was declared; with the family talent for magic realism, she once told me she had been to the doctor’s on the very day.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)
