Reading Rage

Famous quotes containing the words reading and/or rage:

    A reading machine, always wound up and going,
    He mastered whatever was not worth the knowing.
    James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

    There was the murdered corpse, in covert laid,
    And violent death in thousand shapes displayed;
    The city to the soldier’s rage resigned;
    Successless wars, and poverty behind;
    Ships burnt in fight, or forced on rocky shores,
    And the rash hunter strangled by the boars;
    The newborn babe by nurses overlaid;
    And the cook caught within the raging fire he made.
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
