Famous quotes containing the words match and/or details:

    “Auden, MacNeice, Day Lewis, I have read them all,
    Hoping against hope to hear the authentic call . . .
    And know the explanation I must pass is this
    MYou cannot light a match on a crumbling wall.”
    —Hugh MacDiarmid (1892–1978)

    “Then he told the news media
    the strange details of his death
    and they hammered him up in the marketplace
    and sold him and sold him and sold him.
    My death the same.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
