Fixed Base

Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or base:

“...stare into the lake of sunset as it runs
boiling, over the west past all control
rolling and swamps the heartbeat and repeats
sea beyond sea after unbearable suns;
think: poems fixed this landscape: Blake, Donne, Keats.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

“No love is entirely without worth, even when the frivolous calls to the frivolous and the base to the base.”
