Tate Threw

Famous quotes containing the words tate and/or threw:

    So, Anactoria, go you away
    With what calm carelessness of sorrow!
    Your gleaming footstep and your grace,
    When comes another morrow,
    Much would I rather then behold
    Than Lydian cars or infantry.
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “If I hit him, he’ll hit me too,” Anton Petrovich thought in a flash. He pulled off the glove with a final yank and threw it awkwardly at Berg. The glove slapped against the wall and dropped into the washstand pitcher.
    “Good shot,” said Berg.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
