Stair Step

Famous quotes containing the words stair and/or step:

“The catastrophe
Buried in the stair carpet stayed there
And never corrupted anybody.
And one day he grew up, and the horizon
Stammered politely. The sky was like muslin.
And still in the old house no one ever answered the bell.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)

“The last step taken found your heft
Decidedly upon the left.
One more would throw you on the right.
Another still you see your plight.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
