Purely Elastic

Famous quotes containing the words purely and/or elastic:

“It was a purely wild and primitive American sound, as much as the barking of a chickaree, and I could not understand a syllable of it.”

“bodies wrapped in elastic bands,
bodies cased in wood or used like telephones,
bodies crucified up onto their crutches,
bodies wearing rubber bags between their legs,
bodies vomiting up their juice like detergent,
bodies smooth and bare as darning eggs.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
