Tate Published

Famous quotes containing the words tate and/or published:

    Alone in the public clearing
    This private thing was owned by all the town,
    Though never claimed by us within my hearing.
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Until the Women’s Movement, it was commonplace to be told by an editor that he’d like to publish more of my poems, but he’d already published one by a woman that month ... this attitude was the rule rather than the exception, until the mid-sixties. Highest compliment was to be told, “You write like a man.”
    Maxine Kumin (b. 1925)
