Side Door

Famous quotes containing the words side and/or door:

    “The businessman who assumes that his life is everything, and the mystic who asserts that it is nothing, fail, on this side and on that, to hit the truth.... No; truth, being alive ... was only to be found by continuous excursions into either realm, and though proportion is the final secret, to espouse it at the outset is to ensure sterility.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    “Oh Mary,
    Gentle Mother,
    open the door and let me in.
    A bee has stung your belly with faith.
    Let me float in it like a fish.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
