Famous quotes containing the words crooked and/or man:

    “but what can be done gull gull when you turn the sun
    on again, a dead fruit
    and all that flies today
    is crooked and vain and has been cut from a book.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Let us have compassion for those under chastisement. Alas, who are we ourselves? Who am I and who are you? Whence do we come and is it quite certain that we did nothing before we were born? This earth is not without some resemblance to a gaol. Who knows but that man is a victim of divine justice? Look closely at life. It is so constituted that one senses punishment everywhere.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
