Sea Gull

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or gull:

    “SWEENEY:
    Nothing to eat but the fruit as it grows.
    Nothing to see but the palmtrees one way
    And the sea the other way,
    Nothing to hear but the sound of the surf.
    Nothing at all but three things
    DORIS: What things?
    SWEENEY: Birth, and copulation, and death.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “but what can be done gull gull when you turn the sun
    on again, a dead fruit
    and all that flies today
    is crooked and vain and has been cut from a book.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
