Famous quotes containing the words match and/or officials:

    “When they turn the sun
    on again I’ll plant children
    under it, I’ll light up my soul
    with a match and let it sing....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “To name oneself is the first act of both the poet and the revolutionary. When we take away the right to an individual name, we symbolically take away the right to be an individual. Immigration officials did this to refugees; husbands routinely do it to wives.”
    —Erica Jong (b. 1942)
