Milk Snakes

Famous quotes containing the words milk and/or snakes:

    Hunger makes you restless. You dream about food—not just any food, but perfect food, the best food, magical meals, famous and awe-inspiring, the one piece of meat, the exact taste of buttery corn, tomatoes so ripe they split and sweeten the air, beans so crisp they snap between the teeth, gravy like mother’s milk singing to your bloodstream.
    Dorothy Allison (b. 1953)

    Or driven wild
    by snakes that kept the carrots clean,
    she butchered snakes and carrots with a hoe.
    Richard Hugo (1923–1982)
