Singing Grass

Famous quotes containing the words singing and/or grass:

    And upside down in air were towers
    Tolling reminiscent bells, that kept the hours
    And voices singing out of empty cisterns and exhausted wells
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Art is so wonderfully irrational, exuberantly pointless, but necessary all the same. Pointless and yet necessary, that’s hard for a puritan to understand.
    —Günther Grass (b. 1927)
