One

Famous quotes containing the word one:

    Come, my pretender, my fritter,
    my bubbler, my chicken biddy!
    Oh succulent one,
    it is but one turn in the road
    and I would be a cannibal!
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I haven’t read one book about
    A book or memorized one plot,
    Or found a mind I did not doubt,
    I learned one date. And then forgot.
    And one by one the solid scholars
    Get the degrees, the jobs, the dollars.
    William Dewitt Snodgrass (b. 1926)

    There is room in the halls of pleasure
    For a large and lordly train,
    But one by one we must all file on
    Through the narrow aisles of pain.
    Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850–1919)
