Simple Pole

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or pole:

    I would like a simple life
    yet all night I am laying
    poems away in a long box.
    It is my immortality box,
    my lay-away plan,
    my coffin.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The discovery of the North Pole is one of those realities which could not be avoided. It is the wages which human perseverance pays itself when it thinks that something is taking too long. The world needed a discoverer of the North Pole, and in all areas of social activity, merit was less important here than opportunity.
    Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
