Named Phoenix

Famous quotes containing the words named and/or phoenix:

    We named you Joy.
    I, who was never quite sure
    about being a girl, needed another
    life, another image to remind me.
    And this was my worst guilt; you could not cure
    nor soothe it. I made you to find me.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    A phoenix it is
    This hearse that must bless
    With aromatic gums
    That cost great sums,
    The way of thurification
    To make a fumigation,
    Sweet of reflare,
    And redolent of air,
    John Skelton (1460?–1529)
