W. Scott Darling

Famous quotes containing the words scott and/or darling:

    What lies behind facts like these: that so recently one could not have said Scott was not perfect without earning at least sorrowful disapproval; that a year after the Gang of Four were perfect, they were villains; that in the fifties in the United States a nothing-man called McCarthy was able to intimidate and terrorise sane and sensible people, but that in the sixties young people summoned before similar committees simply laughed.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)

    All night long the darling daughter squirms
    Wild where the Toddle and the Shimmy vie
    In making passion virtuous and correct....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
