Famous quotes containing the words world, golf, hall and/or fame:

    “Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other’s eyes for an instant? We should live in all the ages of the world in an hour; ay, in all the worlds of the ages. History, Poetry, Mythology!—I know of no reading of another’s experience so startling and informing as this would be.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Did I make you go insane?
    Did I turn up your earphone and let a siren drive through?
    Did I open the door for the mustached psychiatrist
    who dragged you out like a golf cart?
    Did I make you go insane?”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Sweet death, small son, our instrument
    Of immortality,
    Your cries and hungers document
    Our bodily decay.”
    —Donald Hall (b. 1928)

    “Today one does not hear much about him.... The fame of his likes circulates briskly but soon grows heavy and stale; and as for history it will limit his life story to the dash between two dates.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
