Famous quotes containing the words general and/or stone:

his small size,
keen eyes,
serviceable beak
and general truculence
assure his survival—”

“At first your mother said . . . why me! why me!
But she got over that. Now she enjoys
her dull daily care and her hectic bravery.
You do not love anyone. She is not growing a boy;
she is enlarging a stone to wear around her neck.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
