Famous quotes containing the words gun and/or shy:

    “Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its labourers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.”
    —Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969)

    “I want mother’s milk,
    that good sour soup.
    I want breasts singing like eggplants,
    and a mouth above making kisses.
    I want nipples like shy strawberries
    for I need to suck the sky.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
