Lock

Famous quotes containing the word lock:

“There warn’t anybody at the church, except maybe a hog or two, for there warn’t any lock on the door, and hogs likes a puncheon floor in summertime because it’s cool. If you notice, most folks don’t go to church only when they’ve got to; but a hog is different.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

“They learned to rattle the lock and key
To give whatever might chance to be,
Warning and time to be off in flight:”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)

“then take off your flesh,
unpick the lock of your bones.
In other words
take off the wall
that separates you from God.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
