Stuck River

Famous quotes containing the words stuck and/or river:

    A man who publishes his letters becomes a nudist—nothing shields him from the world’s gaze except his bare skin. A writer, writing away, can always fix himself up to make himself more presentable, but a man who has written a letter is stuck with it for all time.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)

    We are bare. We are stripped to the bone
    and we swim in tandem and go up and up
    the river, the identical river called Mine
    and we enter together. No one’s alone.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
