Famous quotes containing the words perk and/or castle:
“The token woman carries a bouquet of hothouse celery
and a stenographer’s pad; she will take
the minutes, perk the coffee, smile
like a plastic daisy and put out
the black cat of her sensuous anger
to howl on the fence all night.”
—Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
“Let me be at the place of the castle.
Let the castle be within me.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
