Frank Templeton Prince

Famous quotes containing the words templeton prince, frank templeton, frank, templeton and/or prince:

    All’s pathos now. The body that was gross,
    Rank, ravenous, disgusting in the act or in repose,
    All fever, filth and sweat, its bestial strength
    And bestial decay, by pain and labour grows at length
    Fragile and luminous.
    —Frank Templeton Prince (b. 1912)

    For that rage, that bitterness, those blows,
    That hatred of the slain, what could it be
    But indirectly or directly a commentary
    On the Crucifixion?
    Frank Templeton Prince (b. 1912)

    The radio ... goes on early in the morning and is listened to at all hours of the day, until nine, ten and often eleven o’clock in the evening. This is certainly a sign that the grown-ups have infinite patience, but it also means that the power of absorption of their brains is pretty limited, with exceptions, of course—I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings.

    —Anne Frank (1929–1945)

    And even we must know, that nobody has understood,
    That some great love is over all we do,
    And that is what has driven us to this fury, for so few
    Can suffer all the terror of that love:
    —Frank Templeton Prince (b. 1912)

    In early times, before the floods swept across the world, there was life, albeit odd, as one can see from the fossils of mammoth bones, and there was the regime of Prince Metternich.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
