Cross Cross

Famous quotes containing the word cross:

    Expecting me to grovel,
    she carefully covers both feet
    with the hem of her skirt.
    She pretends to hide
    a coming smile
    and won’t look straight at me.
    When I talk to her,
    she chats with her friend
    in cross tones.
    Even this slim girl’s rising anger
    delights me,
    let alone her deep love.
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    The cross of the Legion of Honor has been conferred on me. However, few escape that distinction.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
