Famous quotes containing the word threw:

    ““If I hit him, he’ll hit me too,” Anton Petrovich thought in a flash. He pulled off the glove with a final yank and threw it awkwardly at Berg. The glove slapped against the wall and dropped into the washstand pitcher.
    “Good shot,” said Berg.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “Nora was always free with it and threw her heart away as if it was a used bus ticket.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    “And I threw a little earth
    on the pink coffin
    covered by the fake plastic grass
    and said O.K., God,
    if it’s the end of the world,
    it must be necessary.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
