Pitch Circles

Famous quotes containing the words pitch and/or circles:

“I can’t earn my own living. I could never make anything turn into money. It’s like making fires. A careful assortment of paper, shavings, faggots and kindling nicely tipped with pitch will never light for me. I have never been present when a cigarette butt, extinct, thrown into a damp and isolated spot, started a conflagration in the California woods.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

“And why do you cry, my dear, why do you cry?
It is all in the whirling circles of time.
If millions are born millions must die,”
—Robinson Jeffers (1887–1962)
