Famous quotes containing the words mental and/or deficiency:
“Such writing is a sort of mental masturbation.... I don’t mean that he is indecent but viciously soliciting his own ideas into a state which is neither poetry nor anything else but a Bedlam vision produced by raw pork and opium.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“Free verse leaves out the meter and makes up
For the deficiency by church intoning.
Free verse, so called, is really cherished prose....”
