Learned

Famous quotes containing the word learned:

“But it’s hard to be hip over thirty
When everyone else is nineteen,
When the last dance we learned was the Lindy,
And the last we heard, girls who looked like Barbra Streisand
Were trying to do something about it.”
—Judith Viorst (b. 1935)

“The more learned a writer, the more digression beckons him.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

—Anne Smedley (c. 1894–1950)
