Famous quotes containing the words tie and/or breaks:
“Helpless and overwrought,
she would fasten
the rope-noose about the beam
above her bride-couch
and tie it to her white throat....”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“Although the pattern prevailed,
The breaks were everywhere. That she could think
Of no thread capable of the necessary
Sew-work.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
