Waiting

Famous quotes containing the word waiting:

    They have been waiting for us in a foetor
    Of vegetable sweat since civil war days,
    Since the gravel-crunching, interminable departure
    Of the expropriated mycologist.
    Derek Mahon (b. 1941)

    We’re waiting for Godot.
    Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    I am tearing the feathers out of the pillows,
    waiting, waiting for Daddy to come home
    and stuff me so full of our infected child
    that I turn invisible, but married,
    at last.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
