Johnny Otis Show

Famous quotes containing the words johnny, otis and/or show:

    “It’s as plain as plain can be;
    This woman shot her lover, it’s murder in the second degree,
    —Unknown. Frankie and Johnny (l. 73–74)

    It’s not that I don’t want to be a beauty, that I don’t yearn to be dripping with glamor. It’s just that I can’t see how any woman can find time to do to herself all the things that must apparently be done to make herself beautiful and, having once done them, how anyone without the strength of mind of a foreign missionary can keep up such a regime.
    —Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)

    you show her the two hands
    that grip each other fiercely,
    one being mine, one being yours.
    Torn right off at the wrist bone
    when you started in your
    impossible going, gone.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
