Famous quotes containing the words heel and/or stone:

that the stream is trampled,
the sand on the stream-bank
still holds the print of your foot:
the heel is cut deep.”

“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)
