Famous quotes containing the words room and/or locked:
“He-who-came-forth was
it turned out

in boots, in jeans, in a cloak of flame....”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“... I was crying partly because I felt that this was expected of me, partly from genuine repentance, but partly also because of a deeper grief which is peculiar to childhood and not easy to convey: a sense of desolate loneliness and helplessness, of being locked up not only in a hostile world but in a world of good and evil where the rules were such that it was actually not possible for me to keep them.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
