Heavy

Famous quotes containing the word heavy:

    “The heavy burden of the growing soul
    Perplexes and offends more, day by day;
    Week by week, offends and perplexes more
    With the imperatives of “is and seems”
    And may and may not, desire and control.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “Now we will have a Christ.
    He covers her like a heavy door
    and shuts her lifetime up
    into this dump-faced day.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Death,
    you lie in my arms like a cherub,
    as heavy as bread dough.
    Your milky wings are as still as plastic.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
