Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or strikes:

    Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.
    Janet Frame (b. 1924)

    Lastly, his tomb
    Shall list and founder in the troughs of grass
    And none shall speak his name.
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    Kassandra shakes out her hair
    Its gold clasped
    With half-opened laurel-shoots
    When the god strikes her
    With his breath.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
