Straight Arrows

Famous quotes containing the words straight and/or arrows:

“A straight oar looks bent in the water. What matters is not merely that we see things but how we see them.”

“I am devoted to those who endured, like Colette. It is easier ... to kiss the world a bitter goodbye than to go on working, writing, changing, enduring the slings & arrows of outrageous aging. Colette endured. And she wrote & wrote & wrote. Whenever I feel really depressed, I think of her & keep going.”
—Erica Jong (b. 1942)
