Space Junk

Famous quotes containing the words space and/or junk:

    “The true gardener then brushes over the ground with slow and gentle hand, to liberate a space for breath round some favourite; but he is not thinking about destruction except incidentally. It is only the amateur like myself who becomes obsessed and rejoices with a sadistic pleasure in weeds that are big and bad enough to pull, and at last, almost forgetting the flowers altogether, turns into a Reformer.”
    —Freya Stark (1893–1993)

    “Haul them off! Hide them!
    The heart winces
    For junk and gimcrack,
    for jerrybuilt things
    And the men who make them
    for a little money,”
    —Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
