Famous quotes containing the words recurrent and/or nerve:
“My sleep is made cold
By a recurrent dream....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Social questions are too sectional, too topical, too temporal to move a man to the mighty effort which is needed to produce great poetry. Prison reform may nerve Charles Reade to produce an effective and businesslike prose melodrama; but it could never produce Hamlet, Faust, or Peer Gynt.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
