Written Vowels

Famous quotes containing the words written and/or vowels:

“Much verse fails of being poetry because it was not written exactly at the right crisis, though it may have been inconceivably near to it. It is only by a miracle that poetry is written at all. It is not recoverable thought, but a hue caught from a vaster receding thought.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Playing “bop” is like playing Scrabble with all the vowels missing.”
—Duke Ellington (1899–1974)
