Anne Sexton Quotes

"The surest poison is time.""We live between joy and hate.""I think more than I forget.""Poetry, in essence, is the celebration of being.""The simple truth about life is its complexity.""Stars open among the lilies.""The joy that isn’t shared dies young.""You know the hours of love have been tried.""Life is death we are a letter to God.""I never expected this lonely country road.""I spoil my children with my love, not my money.""Pain engraves a deeper memory.""The light of a star, in another one’s tear.""We are all writing God's poem.""The great comfort of art, is contradiction.""Love is the truth beyond magic.""Every fairy tale had a bloody lining.""God did not intend you to be a grave.""I write only because there is a voice within me""Reality is a cliche from which we escape by metaphor."
