Sir John Scott

Famous quotes containing the words sir and/or scott:

    Dug from the tomb of taste-refining time,
    Each form is exquisite, each block sublime.
    Or good, or bad,—disfigur’d, or deprav’d,—
    All art, is at its resurrection sav’d;
    All crown’d with glory in the critic’s heav’n,
    Each merit magnified, each fault forgiven.
    Martin Archer, Sir Shee (1769–1850)

    For awhile after you quit Keats all other poetry seems to be only whistling or humming.
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
