Famous quotes containing the word sisters:

    If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasn’t good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes’ half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    He’s made a harp of her breast-bane,
    Whose sound wad melt a heart of stane.

    He’s ta’en three locks o’ her yellow hair,
    And wi’ them strung his harp sae rare.
    Unknown. Binnorie; or, The Two Sisters (l. 41–44)

    The miller quickly drew the dam,
    An’ there he found a drown’d woman.

    You cou’dna see her yallow hair
    For gold and pearle that were so rare.
    —Unknown. The Twa Sisters (l. 32–35)
