Famous quotes containing the words wash and/or water:

    “the gentleness of wine in his fingertips,
    where do these hands come from?
    I was born a glass baby and nobody picked me up
    except to wash the dust off me.
    He has picked me up and licked me alive.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “The clock runs down
    timeless and still.
    The days and nights turn hours to years
    and water in a gutter marks the circle of another world
    hating, resentful, and afraid
    stagnant, and green, and full of slimy things.”
    —Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)
