Famous quotes containing the words blackboard and/or chalk:
“When Wilson got upon his legs in those days he seems to have gone into a sort of trance, with all the peculiar illusions and delusions that belong to a pedagogue gone mashugga. He heard words giving three cheers; he saw them race across a blackboard like Mexicans pursued by the Polizei; he felt them rush up and kiss him.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“The women cry,
Come, my fox,
heal me.
I am chalk white
with middle age
so wear me threadbare....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
