Famous quotes containing the words benjamin and/or fine:

    Boredom is the dream bird that hatches the egg of experience. A rustling in the leaves drives him away.
    —Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)

    To stand on common ground
    here and there gritty with pebbles
    yet elsewhere ‘fine and mellow—
    uncommon fine for ploughing’
    there to labor
    planting the vegetable words
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
