Regular Abstract

Famous quotes containing the words regular and/or abstract:

    This is the frost coming out of the ground; this is Spring. It precedes the green and flowery spring, as mythology precedes regular poetry. I know of nothing more purgative of winter fumes and indigestions. It convinces me that Earth is still in her swaddling-clothes, and stretches forth baby fingers on every side.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    But it thought no bed too narrow—it stood with lips askew
    And shook its great head sadly like the abstract Jew.
    Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)
