Plates Held

Famous quotes containing the words plates and/or held:

    I have experienced such simple delight in the trivial matters of fishing and sporting, formerly, as might have inspired the muse of Homer or Shakespeare; and now, when I turn the pages and ponder the plates of the Angler’s Souvenir, I am fain to exclaim,—
    “Can such things be,
    And overcome us like a summer’s cloud?”
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    you held me just as you must
    and of course we’re not married, we are a pair of scissors
    who come together to cut, without towels saying His. Hers.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
