Award Watch

Famous quotes containing the words award and/or watch:

“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”

“the young men who watch us from the curbs:
They hold the glaze of wonder in their stare
Our crooked backs, hands fetid as old herbs,
The tallow eyes, wax face, the foreign hair!”
