Platform Tent

Famous quotes containing the words platform and/or tent:

    The use of literature is to afford us a platform whence we may command a view of our present life, a purchase by which we may move it.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There’s more than just animals:
    Bead-stalls, balloon-men, a Bank; a beer-marquee that
    Half-screens a canvas Gents; a tent selling tweed,
    And another, jackets.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
