Heap

Famous quotes containing the word heap:

    We cannot be any stronger in our foreign policy—for all the bombs and guns we may heap up in our arsenals—than we are in the spirit which rules inside the country. Foreign policy, like a river, cannot rise above its source.
    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    In Africa I had indeed found a sufficiently frightful kind of loneliness but the isolation of this American ant heap was even more shattering.
    Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)

    Squalor spreads its hideous length
    through the carts and the asses’ feet,
    squalor coils and reopens
    and creeps under barrow
    and heap of refuse....
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
