Famous quotes containing the words warm and/or reading:
“if she were lacking all grace
they’d pass her in silence:
so it’s not only to say she’s
a warm hole.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“Chaucer sawed life in half and out tumbled hundreds of unpremeditated lives, because he didn’t have the cast-iron grid of a priori coherence that makes reading Goethe, Shakespeare, or Dante an exercise in searching for signs of life among the conventions, compulsions, self-justifications, proofs, wise saws, simple but powerful messages, and poetry.”
—Marvin Mudrick (1921–1986)
