Ground Water

Famous quotes containing the words ground and/or water:

    Every act of the man inscribes itself in the memories of his fellows, and in his own manners and face. The air is full of sounds; the sky, of tokens; the ground is all memoranda and signatures; and every object covered over with hints, which speak to the intelligent.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    it
    was my first doll that water went
    into and water came out of much
    earlier it was the diaper I wore
    and the dirt thereof and my
    mother hating me for it
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
