Division Crossed

Famous quotes containing the words division and/or crossed:

    That crazed girl improvising her music,
    Her poetry, dancing upon the shore,
    Her soul in division from itself
    Climbing, falling she knew not where,
    Hiding amid the cargo of a steamship
    Her knee-cap broken.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    my eyes filled up like an owl,
    and my legs crossed themselves like Christ’s.
    He was a stranger, Father.
    Oh God,
    he was a stranger,
    was he not?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
