Famous quotes containing the word clothed:
“His speech is a burning fire;
With his lips he travaileth;
In his heart is a blind desire,
In his eyes foreknowledge of death:
He weaves, and is clothed with derision;
Sows, and he shall not reap;
His life is a watch or a vision
Between a sleep and a sleep.”
—A.C. (Algernon Charles)
“You’ve watched me all your life,
I’ve clothed your wife,
put your two sons through college.
What good has it done?
Sun keeps rising every morning.”
—Ray Durem (1915–1963)
“Out of the cage came Eve,
escaping, escaping.
She was clothed in her skin like the sun
and her ankles were not for sale.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
