Famous quotes containing the words joint and/or sitting:
“I conjure thee, and all the oaths which I
And thou have sworn to seal joint constancy,

Thou shalt not love by ways so dangerous.

Be my true Mistress still, not my feign’d Page;
I’ll go, and, by thy kind leave, leave behind
Thee, only worthy to nurse in my mind
Thirst to come back;”
—John Donne (1572–1631)
“I knew you forever and you were always old,
soft white lady of my heart. Surely you would scold
me for sitting up late, reading your letters....”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
