Famous quotes containing the words major, written and/or works:

    Our major universities are now stuck with an army of pedestrian, toadying careerists, Fifties types who wave around Sixties banners to conceal their record of ruthless, beaverlike tunneling to the top.
    Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

    And cried, ‘Before I am old
    I shall have written him one
    Poem maybe as cold
    And passionate as the dawn.’
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Words are always getting conventionalized to some secondary meaning. It is one of the works of poetry to take the truants in custody and bring them back to their right senses.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
