Famous quotes containing the word jack:

    “Lock in! Be alert, my acrobat
    and I will be soft wood and you the nail
    and we will make fiery ovens for Jack Sprat
    and you will hurl yourself into my tiny jail
    and we will take a supper together and that
    will be that.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
