Line Opens

Famous quotes containing the words line and/or opens:

    We have not passed that subtle line between childhood and adulthood until we move from the passive voice to the active voice—that is, until we have stopped saying “It got lost,” and say, “I lost it.”
    Sydney J. Harris (b. 1917)

    I can smell
    the blade that opens the hole
    and the pudgy white fingers

    that shake out the intestines
    like a hankie.
    Philip Levine (b. 1928)
