Small Affair

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or affair:

    A steam ran small and terrible and shrill;
    it was so still;
    the stream ran from the oak-copse
    and returned and ran
    back into shadow.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    An affair wants to spill, to share its glory with the world. No act is so private it does not seek applause.
    John Updike (b. 1932)
