Hand Turned Scoreboard

Famous quotes containing the words hand and/or turned:

    “The hand I burned and whose skin is shriveled like that of a mummy’s is less sensitive than the other to cold or heat. My soul is the same; it passed through fire.”
    —Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    “I light matches and put them in my mouth,
    and my teeth melt but the greenery hisses on.
    I drink blood from my wrists
    and the green slips out like a bracelet.
    Couldn’t one of my keepers get a lawn mower
    and chop it down if I turned inside out for an hour?”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
