Famous quotes containing the words neutral and/or vowels:

“I feel the carousel starting slowly
And going faster and faster: desk, papers, books,
Photographs of friends, the window and the trees
Merging in one neutral band that surrounds
Me on all sides, everywhere I look.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“Playing “bop” is like playing Scrabble with all the vowels missing.”
