Famous quotes containing the words finger and/or eleven:
“There in the narrow,
mote-filled finger of light, is a blonde
so blonde, so blinding, she is a blizzard, a huge
spook, and lights up like the sun the audience
in its galoshes. She bulges like a deuce coupe.
When we see her we say good-bye to Kansas.”
—Lynn Emanuel (b. 1949)
“After eleven years I was composing
Love-letters again, broaching the word ‘wife’
Like a stored cask,”
—Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)
