Famous quotes containing the words front and/or ends:

    “In front of that sinner of a husband,
    she rattled off
    only those words
    that her pack of vile-tongued girlfriends
    taught her
    as fast as she could,
    and after,
    began to behave
    at the Love-god’s beck and call.
    It’s indescribable,
    this natural, charming
    path of love,
    paved with the gems
    of inexperience.”
    —Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    “they filled his belly
    with large stones and sewed him up.
    He was as heavy as a cemetery
    and when he woke up and tried to run off
    he fell over dead. Killed by his own weight.
    Many a deception ends on such a note.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
