Cloakroom Pages

Famous quotes containing the words cloakroom and/or pages:

    The cloakroom pegs are empty now,
    And locked the classroom door,
    The hollow desks are dimmed with dust....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Our brains are no longer conditioned for reverence and awe. We cannot imagine a Second Coming that would not be cut down to size by the televised evening news, or a Last Judgment not subject to pages of holier-than-Thou second- guessing in The New York Review of Books.
    John Updike (b. 1932)
