Modern Swing

Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or swing:

    Kindness is a virtue neither modern nor urban. One almost unlearns it in a city. Towns have their own beatitude; they are not unfriendly; they offer a vast and solacing anonymity or an equally vast and solacing gregariousness. But one needs a neighbor on whom to practice compassion.
    Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

    Slave of the wheel of labor, what to him
    Are Plato and the swing of Pleiades?
    Edwin Markham (1852–1940)
