Secondary Stadium

Famous quotes containing the words secondary and/or stadium:

    “Readers are less and less seen as mere non-writers, the subhuman “other” or flawed derivative of the author; the lack of a pen is no longer a shameful mark of secondary status but a positively enabling space, just as within every writer can be seen to lurk, as a repressed but contaminating antithesis, a reader.”
    —Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)

    “In their eyes I have seen
    the pin men of madness in marathon trim
    race round the track of the stadium pupil.”
    —Patricia K. Page (b. 1916)
