Cheever Wrote

Famous quotes containing the words cheever and/or wrote:

    The organizations of men, like men themselves, seem subject to deafness, nearsightedness, lameness, and involuntary cruelty. We seem tragically unable to help one another, to understand one another.
    —John Cheever (1912–1982)

    I loved, but woman fell away;
    I hid me from her faded fame.
    I snatched the sun’s eternal ray
    And wrote till earth was but a name.
