Full Length

Famous quotes containing the words full and/or length:

“Dead power is everywhere among us—in the forest, chopping down the songs; at night in the industrial landscape, wasting and stiffening the new life; in the streets of the city, throwing away the day. We wanted something different for our people: not to find ourselves an old, reactionary republic, full of ghost-fears, the fears of death and the fears of birth. We want something else.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

“People are always dying in the Times who don’t seem to die in other papers, and they die at greater length and maybe even with a little more grace.”
—James Reston (b. 1909)
