Painted Wood

Famous quotes containing the words painted and/or wood:

    Enter Rumor, painted full of tongues.
    Open your ears; for which of you will stop
    The vent of hearing when loud Rumor speaks?

    Lock in! Be alert, my acrobat
    and I will be soft wood and you the nail
    and we will make fiery ovens for Jack Sprat
    and you will hurl yourself into my tiny jail
    and we will take a supper together and that
    will be that.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
