Fallen

Famous quotes containing the word fallen:

    The disesteem into which moralists have fallen is due at bottom to their failure to see that in an age like this one the function of the moralist is not to exhort men to be good but to elucidate what the good is. The problem of sanctions is secondary.
    Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    Every American poet feels that the whole responsibility for contemporary poetry has fallen upon his shoulders, that he is a literary aristocracy of one.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    corolla of bleary spikes pushed down and broken like a battered
    crown, seeds fallen out of its face, soon-to-be- toothless mouth of
    sunny air, sunrays obliterated on its hairy head like a dried wire
    spiderweb,
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
