Gross State

Famous quotes containing the words gross and/or state:

“I am haunted by interrupted acts,
introspective as a leper, enchanted
by a repulsive clew,
a gross and fugitive movement of the limbs.
Is this the love that shook the lights to flame?”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

“If the alternative is to keep all just men in prison, or give up war and slavery, the State will not hesitate which to choose.”
