Prince Played

Famous quotes containing the words prince and/or played:

    “Daddy?
    That’s another kind of prison.
    It’s not the prince at all,

    drunkenly bent over my bed,
    circling the abyss like a shark....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “All those girls
    who wore the red shoes,
    each boarded a train that would not stop.
    Stations flew by like suitors and would not stop.
    They all danced like trout on the hook.
    They were played with.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
