Baker Boys

Famous quotes containing the words baker and/or boys:

    Unpleasant questions are being raised about Mother’s Day. Is this day necessary? . . . Isn’t it bad public policy? . . . No politician with half his senses, which a majority of politicians have, is likely to vote for its abolition, however. As a class, mothers are tender and loving, but as a voting bloc they would not hesitate for an instant to pull the seat out from under any Congressman who suggests that Mother is not entitled to a box of chocolates each year in the middle of May.
    —Russell Baker (20th century)

    Ms. Dog wouldn’t give them her buttocks.
    She would moon at them.
    Just at the killers of the dream.
    The bus boys of the soul.
    Or at death
    who wants to make her a mummy.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
