Allotment Act

Famous quotes containing the words allotment and/or act:

“Now I hold Creation in my foot

Or fly up, and revolve it all slowly—
I kill where I please because it is all mine.
There is no sophistry in my body:
My manners are tearing off heads—

The allotment of death.”
—Ted Hughes (b. 1930)

“With the first act of cruelty committed in the name of revolution, with the first murder, with the first purge and execution, we have lost the revolution.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
