Famous quotes containing the words frank, white and/or academy:

    Let us be frank about it: most of our people have never had it so good.
    Harold MacMillan (1894–1986)

    He thought that I was after him for a feather—
    The white one in his tail; like one who takes
    Everything said as personal to himself.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I realized early on that the academy and the literary world alike—and I don’t think there really is a distinction between the two—are always dominated by fools, knaves, charlatans and bureaucrats. And that being the case, any human being, male or female, of whatever status, who has a voice of her or his own, is not going to be liked.
    Harold Bloom (b. 1930)
