Famous quotes containing the words lock and/or pick:
“then take off your flesh,
unpick the lock of your bones.
In other words
take off the wall
that separates you from God.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“Unable to create a meaningful life for itself, the personality takes its own revenge: from the lower depths comes a regressive form of spontaneity: raw animality forms a counterpoise to the meaningless stimuli and the vicarious life to which the ordinary man is conditioned. Getting spiritual nourishment from this chaos of events, sensations, and devious interpretations is the equivalent of trying to pick through a garbage pile for food.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
