People Born

Famous quotes containing the words people and/or born:

    Here, lads, we live by the law of the taiga. But even here people manage to live. D’you know who are the ones the camps finish off? Those who lick other men’s left-overs, those who set store by the doctors, and those who peach on their mates.
    Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)

    the gentleness of wine in his fingertips,
    where do these hands come from?
    I was born a glass baby and nobody picked me up
    except to wash the dust off me.
    He has picked me up and licked me alive.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
