Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or year:
“You know lots of criticism is written by characters who are very academic and think it is a sign you are worthless if you make jokes or kid or even clown. I wouldn’t kid Our Lord if he was on the cross. But I would attempt a joke with him if I ran into him chasing the money changers out of the temple.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“Death’s a sad bone; bruised, you’d say,
and yet she waits for me, year after year,”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
