Famous quotes containing the words classic and/or legends:

    The great British Library—an immense collection of volumes of all ages and languages, many of which are now forgotten, and most of which are seldom read: one of these sequestered pools of obsolete literature to which modern authors repair, and draw buckets full of classic lore, or “pure English, undefiled” wherewith to swell their own scanty rills of thought.
    Washington Irving (1783–1859)

    Farm boys wild to couple
    With anything with soft-wooded trees
    With mounds of earthmounds
    Of pine straw will keep themselves off
    Animals by legends of their own:
    James Dickey (b. 1923)
