Empty Net

Famous quotes containing the words empty and/or net:

    O I am miserable:
    You cherished me, my mother,
    But even you desert me.
    I am sent to an empty place.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    it was you untying the snarls and knots,
    the webs, all bloody and gluey;
    you with your twelve tongues and twelve wings
    beating, wresting, beating, beating
    your way out of childhood,
    that airless net that fastened you down.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
