Reaching Number

Famous quotes containing the words reaching and/or number:

    ... this single span,
    Reaching for the world, as our lives do,
    As all lives do, reaching that we may give
    The best of what we are and hold as true:
    Always it is by bridges that we live.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Black lady,
    what will I do
    without your two flowers?
    I have inhabited you, number by number.
    I have pushed you in and out like a needle.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
