Painted Red

Famous quotes containing the words painted and/or red:

    “I, in my brand new body,
    which was not a woman’s yet,
    told the stars my questions
    and thought God could really see
    the heat and the painted light,
    elbows, knees, dreams, goodnight.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    much to be desired.”
