Tight Turns

Famous quotes containing the words tight and/or turns:

“Stiff springy jumps down the snowfields
Head held back, forefeet out,
Balls tight in a tough hair sack”

“... until the shopkeeper plants his boot in our eyes,
and unties our bone and is finished with the case,
and turns to the next customer, forgetting our face
or how we knelt at the yellow bulb with sighs
like moth wings for a short while in a small place.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
