Rubber Article

Famous quotes containing the words rubber and/or article:

    Time for the flat-headed man. I recognize that listener,
    Him with the platitudes and rubber doughnuts,
    Melting at the knees, a varicose horror.
    Hello, hello. My nerves knew you, dear boy.
    Have you come to unhinge my shadow?
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    I review novels to make money, because it is easier for a sluggard to write an article a fortnight than a book a year, because the writer is soothed by the opiate of action, the crank by posing as a good journalist, and having an airhole. I dislike it. I do it and I am always resolving to give it up.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
