Sisters

Famous quotes containing the word sisters:

“If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasn’t good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes’ half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)

“The miller quickly drew the dam,
An’ there he found a drown’d woman.

You cou’dna see her yallow hair
For gold and pearle that were so rare.”
—Unknown. The Twa Sisters (l. 32–35)

““Woe to my sister, false Helen!””
—Unknown. Binnorie; or, The Two Sisters (l. 55)
