Famous quotes with Fig.

  • The average educated man in America has about as much knowledge of what a political idea is as he has of the principles of counterpoint. Each is a thing used in politics or music which those fellows who practice politics or music manipulate somehow. Show him one and he will deny that it is politics at all. It must be corrupt or he will not recognize it. He has only seen dried fig.. He has only thought dried thoughts. A live thought or a real idea is against the rules of his mind.
    John Jay Chapman
  • I disagree with Les. We always found good cunt at the Lyceum. Friendly cunt, clean cunt, spare cunt, jeans and knicker stuffed full of nice juicy hairy cunt, handfuls of cunt, palmful grabbing the cunt by the stem, or the root – infantile memories of cunt – backrow slides – slithery oily cunt, the cunt that breathes – the cunt that’s neatly wrapped in cotton, in silk, in nylon, that announces, that speaks or thrusts, that winks that’s squeezed in a triangle of furtive cloth backed by an arse that’s creamy, springy billowy cushiony tight, knicker lined, knicker skinned, circumscribed by flowers and cotton, by views, clinging knicker, juice ridden knicker, hot knicker, wet knicker, swelling vulva knicker, witty cunt, teeth smiling the eyes biting cunt, cultured cunt, culture vulture cunt, finger biting cunt, cunt that pours, cunt that spreads itself over your soft lips, that attacks, cunt that imagines – cunt you dream about, cunt you create as a Melba, a meringue with smooth sides – remembered from school boys’ smelly first cunt, first foreign cunt, amazing cunt – cunt that’s cruel. Cunt that protects itself and makes you want it even more cunt – cunt that smells of the air, of the earth, of bakeries, of old apples, of fig., of sweat of hands of sour yeast of fresh fish cunt. So – are we going Les? We might pick up a bit of crumpet.
    Steven Berkoff
  • I saw my life branching out before me like the green fig.tree in the story. From the tip of every branch, like a fat purple fig. a wonderful future beckoned and winked. One fig.was a husband and happy home and children, and another fig.was a famous poet and another fig.was a brilliant professor, and another fig.was Ee Gee, the amazing editor, and another fig.was Constantin and Socrates and Attila and a pack of other lovers with queer names and offbeat professions, and another fig.was an Olympic lady crew champion, and beyond and above these fig. were many more fig. I couldn't quite make out.
    Sylvia Plath
  • I saw myself sitting in the crotch of this fig.tree, starving to death, just because I couldn't make up my mind which of the fig. I would choose. I wanted each and every one of them, but choosing one meant losing all the rest, and, as I sat there, unable to decide, the fig. began to wrinkle and go black, and, one by one, they plopped to the ground at my feet.
    Sylvia Plath
