Metal Buttons

Famous quotes containing the words metal and/or buttons:

    “There were metal detectors on the staff-room doors and Hernandez usually had a drawer full of push-daggers, nunchuks, stun-guns, knucks, boot-knives, and whatever else the detectors had picked up. Like Friday morning at a South Miami high school.”
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)

    “Now your beer belly hangs outlike Fatso.
    You are popping your buttons and expelling gas.
    How can I lie down with you, my comical beau
    when you are so middle-aged and lower-class.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
