Mad Strangler

Famous quotes containing the words mad and/or strangler:

    You have known your friend so long and loved him so much, and then all of a sudden you are so mad at him, you say, I could just kill you and you still like each other, because you have always been friends and you know in your mind you are going to be friends in a few seconds anyway.
    —Anonymous Twelve-Year-Old. As quoted in Children’s Friendships by Zick Rubin, ch. 3 (1980)

    And within the house
    ashes are being stuffed into my marriage,
    fury is lapping the walls,
    dishes crack on the shelves,
    a strangler needs my throat,
    the daughter has ceased to eat anything....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
