Famous quotes containing the words south, west and/or london:
“Whenever Im asked why Southern writers particularly have a penchant for writing about freaks, I say it is because we are still able to recognize one. To be able to recognize a freak, you have to have some conception of the whole man, and in the South the general conception of man is still, in the main, theological.”
—Flannery OConnor (19251964)
“But beauty vanishes; beauty passes;
However rarerare it be;
And when I crumble, who will remember
This lady of the West Country?”
—Walter De La Mare (18731956)
“Unreal city,
Under the brown fog of a winter dawn,
A crowd flowed over London Bridge, so many,
I had not thought death had undone so many.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
