Big Oak Flat

Famous quotes containing the words big, oak and/or flat:

    On no work of words now for three lean months in the bloody
    Belly of the rich year and the big purse of my body
    I bitterly take to task my poverty and craft....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Yet poetry, though the last and finest result, is a natural fruit. As naturally as the oak bears an acorn, and the vine a gourd, man bears a poem, either spoken or done. It is the chief and most memorable success, for history is but a prose narrative of poetic deeds.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    For the Eye altering alters all;
    The Senses roll themselves in fear
    And the flat Earth becomes a Ball.
    William Blake (1757–1827)
