Famous quotes containing the words alpine, world and/or cup:
“I held a bayonet
that was for the earth of your stomach.
The belly button singing its puzzle.
The intestines winding like the alpine roads.
It was made to enter you
as you have entered me....”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“Men of all professions affect such an air and appearance as to seem to be what they wish to be believed to beso that one might say the whole world is made up of nothing but appearances.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (16131680)
“In poorer lands
No one touches the water of life.
It has no taste
And though it refreshes absolutely
It is a cup that must also pass
Until everybody
Gets some advantage....”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
