Amazing Bud Powell

Famous quotes containing the words amazing, bud and/or powell:

    Men are the enemies of women. Promising sublime intimacy, unequalled passion, amazing security and grace, they nevertheless exploit and injure in a myriad subtle ways. Without men the world would be a better place: softer, kinder, more loving; calmer, quieter, more humane.
    Ann Oakley (b. 1944)

    I seem to have dodged all my days with one or two persons, and lived upon expectation,—as if the bud would surely blossom; and so I am content to live.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I do not keep a diary. Never have. To write a diary every day is like returning to one’s own vomit.
    —J. Enoch Powell (b. 1912)
