Watson Played

Famous quotes containing the words watson and/or played:

    Miss Watson she took me in the closet and prayed, but nothing come of it. She told me to pray every day, and whatever I asked for I would get it. But it warn’t so. I tried it. Once I got a fish-line, but no hooks. It warn’t any good to me without hooks.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    All those girls
    who wore the red shoes,
    each boarded a train that would not stop.
    Stations flew by like suitors and would not stop.
    They all danced like trout on the hook.
    They were played with.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
