Swell Window

Famous quotes containing the words swell and/or window:

    The swan’s down feather,
    That stands upon the swell at the full of tide,
    And neither way inclines.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I sometimes have the sense that I live my life as a writer with my nose pressed against the wide, shiny plate glass window of the “mainstream” culture. The world seems full of straight, large-circulation, slick periodicals which wouldn’t think of reviewing my book and bookstores which will never order it.
    Jan Clausen (b. 1943)
