Famous quotes containing the words bowen and/or hills:
“As a novelist, I cannot occupy myself with characters, or at any rate central ones, who lack panache, in one or another sense, who would be incapable of a major action or a major passion, or who have not a touch of the ambiguity, the ultimate unaccountability, the enlarging mistiness of persons in history. History, as more austerely I now know it, is not romantic. But I am.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (18991973)
“And I would love you all the Day,
Every Night would kiss and play,
If with me youd fondly stray
Over the Hills and far away.”
—John Gay (16851732)
