Famous quotes containing the words ezra pound and/or pound:

    It is more than likely that the brain itself is, in origin and development, only a sort of great clot of genital fluid held in suspense or reserved.... This hypothesis ... would explain the enormous content of the brain as a maker or presenter of images.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    If I could believe the Quakers banned music because church music is so damn bad, I should view them with approval.
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
