Famous quotes containing the words surgeon and/or general:

    “Each body is in its bunker. The surgeon applies his gum.
    Each body is fitted quickly into its ice-cream pack
    and then stitched up again for the long voyage
    back.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “A writer who writes, “I am alone” ... can be considered rather comical. It is comical for a man to recognize his solitude by addressing a reader and by using methods that prevent the individual from being alone. The word alone is just as general as the word bread. To pronounce it is to summon to oneself the presence of everything the word excludes.”
    —Maurice Blanchot (b. 1907)
