Lay Readers

Famous quotes containing the words lay and/or readers:

    I would that the Boar without bristles had come from the West
    And had rooted the sun and moon and stars out of the sky
    And lay in the darkness, grunting, and turning to his rest.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I am told that Duclos’ book is not in vogue in Paris, and that it is being violently criticized, apparently because readers understand it; and being intelligible is no longer the fashion.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
