Longer Sing

Famous quotes containing the words longer and/or sing:

    “There is, I confess, a hazard to the philosophical analysis of humor. If one rereads the passages that have been analyzed, one may no longer be able to laugh at them. This is an occupational hazard: Philosophy is taking the laughter out of humor.”
    —A.P. Martinich (b. 1946)

    “But could a dream send up through onion fumes
    Its white and violet, fight with fried potatoes
    And yesterday’s garbage ripening in the hall,
    Flutter, or sing an aria down these rooms
    Even if we were willing to let it in,”
    —Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
