Visiting Bishop

Famous quotes containing the words visiting and/or bishop:

    “I have no connections here; only gusty collisions,
    rootless seedlings forced into bloom, that collapse.
    ...
    I am the Visiting Poet: a real unicorn,
    a wind-up plush dodo, a wax museum of the Movement.
    People want to push the buttons and see me glow.”
    —Marge Piercy (b. 1936)

    “The art of losing isn’t hard to master;
    so many things seem filled with the intent
    to be lost that their loss is no disaster.”
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
