Famous quotes containing the words art and/or gum:
“To a poet the mere making of a poem can seem to solve the problem of truth ... but only a problem of art is solved in poetry.”

“Two wooden tubs of blue hydrangeas stand at the foot of the stone steps.
The sky is a blue gum streaked with rose. The trees are black.
The grackles crack their throats of bone in the smooth air.
Moisture and heat have swollen the garden into a slum of bloom.
Pardie! Summer is like a fat beast, sleepy in mildew....”
