Unable

Famous quotes containing the word unable:

    the small town big shot who, although very short,
    who although with a cigarette-stained mustache,
    who although famous for lobster on the rocks,
    left me here, nubkin, sucking in my vodka
    and emphysema cigarettes, unable to walk
    your walks, unable to write your writes.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    To govern is to choose. To appear to be unable to choose is to appear to be unable to govern.
    Nigel Lawson (b. 1932)

    She’s just a child,
    but I’m the one who’s fainthearted.
    She’s the woman,
    but I’m the coward.
    She bears that high, swollen set of breasts,
    but I’m the one who’s burdened.
    The heavy hips are hers,
    but I’m unable to move.
    It’s a wonder
    how clumsy I’ve become
    because of flaws
    that shelter themselves
    in another.
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
