Famous quotes containing the words strange and/or loops:
“a strange being leans over her
and lifts her chin firmly
and gazes at her with executioner’s eyes.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“An accurate charting of the American woman’s progress through history might look more like a corkscrew tilted slightly to one side, its loops inching closer to the line of freedom with the passage of time—but like a mathematical curve approaching infinity, never touching its goal. . . . Each time, the spiral turns her back just short of the finish line.”
—Susan Faludi (20th century)
