Simple Roots

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or roots:

    We are all talkers
    It is true, but underneath the talk lies
    The moving and not wanting to be moved, the loose
    Meaning, untidy and simple like a threshing floor.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    A poet must be a psychologist, but a secret one: he should know and feel the roots of phenomena but present only the phenomena themselves—in full bloom or as they fade away.
    Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
