Cup Broke

Famous quotes containing the words cup and/or broke:

    Sisters define their rivalry in terms of competition for the gold cup of parental love. It is never perceived as a cup which runneth over, rather a finite vessel from which the more one sister drinks, the less is left for the others.
    Elizabeth Fishel (20th century)

    I broke my heart in two
    So hard I struck.
    What matter? for I know
    That out of rock,
    Out of a desolate source,
    Love leaps upon its course.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
