Street Dreams

Famous quotes containing the words street and/or dreams:

    I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
    Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
    If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
    And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Bless all useful objects,
    the spoons made of bone,
    the mattress I cook my dreams upon,
    the typewriter that is my church
    with an altar of keys always waiting.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
