Hook Pick

Famous quotes containing the words hook and/or pick:

    ... with her shoulders as bare as a building,
    with her thin foot and her thin toes,
    with an old red hook in her mouth,
    the mouth that kept bleeding
    into the terrible fields of her soul . . .
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Great writers arrive among us like new diseases—threatening, powerful, impatient for patients to pick up their virus, irresistible.
