Green Table

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or table:

    If you meet a cross-eyed person
    you must plunge into the grass,
    alongside the chilly ants,
    fish through the green fingernails
    and come up with the four-leaf clover....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    ... So damn your food and damn your wines,
    Your twisted loaves and twisting vines,
    Your table d’hôte, your à la carte,
    . . . .
    From now on you can keep the lot.
    Take every single thing you’ve got,
    Your land, your wealth, your men, your dames,
    Your dream of independent power,
    And dear old Konrad Adenauer,
    And stick them up your Eiffel Tower.
    Anthony Jay (b. 1930)
