Famous quotes containing the words bite, mark and/or analysis:
“Not one man is forgiven! East, West, North, South!
I bite off their dingbats. Christ rots in my mouth.
I curse the seed of my father that put me here
for when I die there’ll be no one to say: Oh No!
Oh dear.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“The things that were coming to be talked about
Have come and gone and are still remembered
As being recent. There is a grain of curiosity
At the base of some new thing, that unrolls
Its question mark like a new wave on the shore.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Whatever else American thinkers do, they psychologize, often brilliantly. The trouble is that psychology only takes us so far. The new interest in families has its merits, but it will have done us all a disservice if it turns us away from public issues to private matters. A vision of things that has no room for the inner life is bankrupt, but a psychology without social analysis or politics is both powerless and very lonely.”
—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
