Simple Propositions

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or propositions:

    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)

    Dogmatic theological statements are neither logical propositions nor poetic utterances. They are “shaggy dog” stories; they have a point, but he who tries too hard to get it will miss it.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
