Sisters

Famous quotes containing the word sisters:

    The youngest stood upon a stane,
    The eldest cam and push’d her in.
    Unknown. Binnorie; or, The Two Sisters (l. 15–16)

    If the Christ were content with humble toilers for disciples, that wasn’t good enough for our Bert. He wanted dukes’ half sisters and belted earls wiping his feet with their hair; grand apotheosis of the snob, to humiliate the objects of his own awe by making them venerate him.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)
