White Wins

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or wins:

    “When cats run home and light is come,
    And dew is cold upon the ground,
    And the far-off stream is dumb,
    And the whirring sail goes round,
    And the whirring sail goes round;
    Alone and warming his five wits,
    The white owl in the belfry sits.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “You always read about it:
    the plumber with twelve children
    who wins the Irish Sweepstakes.
    From toilets to riches.
    That story.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
