Downward Departure

Famous quotes containing the words downward and/or departure:

“A woman drew her long black hair out tight
And fiddled whisper music on those strings
And bats with baby faces in the violet light
Whistled, and beat their wings
And crawled head downward down a blackened wall....”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

“Some departure from the norm
Will occur as time grows more open about it.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
