Famous quotes containing the words head and/or voice:

    Piece by piece I seem
    to re-enter the world: I first began
    a small, fixed dot, still see
    that old myself, a dark-blue thumbtack
    pushed into the scene,
    a hard little head protruding
    from the pointillist’s buzz and bloom.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    What is this beast, she thought,
    with muscles on his arms
    like a bag of snakes?
    What is this moss on his legs?
    What prickly plant grows on his cheeks?
    What is this voice as deep as a dog?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
