Wood Pigeon

Famous quotes containing the words wood and/or pigeon:

    This is one of the most serious intrusions into personal life that I can think of, and it’s as bad as anything I’ve ever experienced.

    They wait, each like a wooden decoy
    or soft like a pigeon or
    a sweet snug duck:
    until one moves, moves that dart-beak
    breaking over.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
