Famous quotes containing the word stories:
“the tide lays down its wet throat
and alters the land to islandeven as I watch
I say there is no shore
apart from stories of it,
no smoke, no hut, no beacon ...”
—Lynn Emanuel (b. 1949)
“Reporters are not paid to operate in retrospect. Because when news begins to solidify into current events and finally harden into history, it is the stories we didnt write, the questions we didnt ask that prove far, far more damaging than the ones we did.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“Castaway, your time is a flat sea that doesnt stop,
with no new land to make for and no new stories to swap.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
