Famous quotes containing the words alexander and/or smith:

    When Alexander Pope strolled in the city
    Strict was the glint of pearl and gold sedans.
    Ladies leaned out more out of fear than pity
    For Pope’s tight back was rather a goat’s than man’s.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Hi yih, yippity-yap, merrily I flow,
    O I may be an old foul river but I have plenty of go.
    —Stevie Smith (1902–1971)
