Small Body

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or body:

    I can hear, underground, that sucking and sobbing,
    In my veins, in my bones I feel it,—
    The small waters seeping upward,
    The tight grains parting at last.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    American Archangel you are going—
    your body as big as a moving van—
    the houses, the highways are turning you in.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
