Loose

Famous quotes containing the word loose:

    I am a parcel of vain strivings tied
    By a chance bond together,
    Dangling this way and that, their links
    Were made so loose and wide,
    Methinks,
    For milder weather.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want to escape from these things.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    the loose fragrant cavendish
    and the shag,
    And the bright Virginia
    loose under the bright glass cases,
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
