Famous quotes containing the words insects and/or named:
“If the stars that move together as one, disband,
Flying like insects of fire in a cavern of night,
Pipperoo, pippera, pipperum . . . The rest is rot.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“We named you Joy.
I, who was never quite sure
about being a girl, needed another
life, another image to remind me.
And this was my worst guilt; you could not cure
nor soothe it. I made you to find me.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
