Kin

Famous quotes containing the word kin:

“For little boys are rancorous
When robbed of any myth,
And spiteful and cantankerous
To all their kin and kith.
But little girls can draw conclusions
And profit from their lost illusions.”
—Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

“There is something so settled and stodgy about turning a great romance into next of kin on an emergency room form, and something so soothing and special, too.”

It has no nurse nor kin to know
Nor kin to care.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
