Famous quotes containing the words the world, biggest, dancer and/or world:
“...I had grown up in a world that was dominated by immature age. Not by vigorous immaturity, but by immaturity that was old and tired and prudent, that loved ritual and rubric, and was utterly wanting in curiosity about the new and the strange. Its era has passed away, and the world it made has crumbled around us. Its finest creation, a code of manners, has been ridiculed and discarded.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
“The biggest News I do not dare
Telegraph to the Editor’s chair:
“They are like people everywhere.””
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“That if a dancer stayed his hungry foot
It seemed the sun and moon were in the fruit:”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“I, a stranger and afraid
In a world I never made.”
