Question/grammar

Famous quotes containing the words question and/or grammar:

    Do you like me?
    How absurd!
    What’s a question like that?
    What’s a silence like that?
    And what am I hanging around for,
    riddled with what his silence said?
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Literary gentlemen, editors, and critics think that they know how to write, because they have studied grammar and rhetoric; but they are egregiously mistaken. The art of composition is as simple as the discharge of a bullet from a rifle, and its masterpieces imply an infinitely greater force behind them.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
