Famous quotes containing the word sexton:

    At first your mother said . . . why me! why me!
    But she got over that. Now she enjoys
    her dull daily care and her hectic bravery.
    You do not love anyone. She is not growing a boy;
    she is enlarging a stone to wear around her neck.
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
