Famous quotes containing the words stark and/or edwards:

    During a walk or in a book or in the middle of an embrace, suddenly I awake to a stark amazement at everything. The bare fact of existence paralyzes me... To be alive is so incredible that all I can do is to lie still and merely breathe—like an infant on its back in a cot. It is impossible to be interested in anything in particular while overhead the sun shines or underneath my feet grows a single blade of grass.
    W.N.P. Barbellion (1889–1919)

    Sir Charles: Are you?
    Princess Dala: What?
    Sir Charles: What they call you—the Virgin Queen?
    Princess Dala: I’m not a queen.
    —Blake Edwards (b. 1922)
