Carol

Famous quotes containing the word carol:

“It is not a carol of joy or glee,
But a prayer that he sends from his heart’s deep core,
But a plea, that upward to Heaven he flings—
I know why the caged bird sings!”
—Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872–1906)

“When you’re 50 you start thinking about things you haven’t thought about before. I used to think getting old was about vanity—but actually it’s about losing people you love. Getting wrinkles is trivial.”

“Our enemy is by tradition our savior, in preventing us from superficiality.”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
