Simple Left Modules

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or left:

    Poetry is the most direct and simple means of expressing oneself in words: the most primitive nations have poetry, but only quite well developed civilizations can produce good prose. So don’t think of poetry as a perverse and unnatural way of distorting ordinary prose statements: prose is a much less natural way of speaking than poetry is. If you listen to small children, and to the amount of chanting and singsong in their speech, you’ll see what I mean.
    Northrop Frye (1912–1991)

    Were she to lose her love, because she had lost
    Her confidence in mine, or even lose
    Its first simplicity, love, voice and all,
    All my fine feathers would be plucked away
    And I left shivering.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
