Famous quotes containing the words red and/or coverts:
“...I didn’t consider intellectuals intelligent, I never liked them or their thoughts about life. I defined them as people who care nothing for argument, who are interested only in information; or as people who have a preference for learning things rather than experiencing them. They have opinions but no point of view.... Their talk is the gloomiest type of human discourse I know.... This is a red flag to my nature. Intellectuals, to me have no natures ...”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
“The big blue eyes are shut which saw wrong clothing
And favourite fields and coverts from a horse;”
—Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)
