Extra Wide Gathers

Famous quotes containing the words extra, wide and/or gathers:

    The extra worry began it—on the
    Blue blue mountain—she never set foot
    And then and there. Meanwhile the host
    Mourned her quiet tenure. They all stayed chatting.
    No one did much about eating.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Yet therein now doth lodge a noble peer,
    Great England’s glory and the world’s wide wonder,
    Whose dreadful name late through all Spain did thunder,
    Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)

    Someone who is reluctant to say what he needs to say, often ends up doing so with an insolence whose crassness is proportionate to his fear, once he gathers the necessary courage.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
