Famous quotes containing the words special and/or trophies:

    I have the handicap of being born with a special language to which I alone have the key.
    Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)

    Scatter these well-meant idioms
    Into the smoky spring that fills
    The suburbs, where they will be lost.
    They are no trophies of the sun.
    Hart Crane (1899–1932)
