Famous quotes containing the words tate and/or published:
“A withered silence filled my chest of sorrow
With mildewed fancies till she came to me;
My world she made of laughter and tomorrow
A lonely sail that gemmed a wasted sea.”
—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)
