Famous quotes containing the words shared and/or secret:
“Prose—it might be speculated—is discourse; poetry ellipsis. Prose is spoken aloud; poetry overheard. The one is presumably articulate and social, a shared language, the voice of “communication”; the other is private, allusive, teasing, sly, idiosyncratic as the spider’s delicate web, a kind of witchcraft unfathomable to ordinary minds.”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
“Hold fast your dreams!
Within your heart
Keep one still, secret spot
Where dreams may go,”
—Louise Driscoll (b. 1875)
