Straight Arrows

Famous quotes containing the words straight and/or arrows:

    The straight Hellespont between
    The Sestos and Abydos of her breasts.
    John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

    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)
