Famous quotes containing the words birthday and/or bundle:
“Although Im trying very hard
To sound unlike a birthday card,
Thats all this is: so you may find it
Full of all that lies behind it
Admiration; friendship too;
And hope that in the future you
Reap ever richer revenue.”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“There is Lowell, whos striving Parnassus to climb
With a whole bale of isms tied together with rhyme,
He might get on alone, spite of brambles and boulders,
But he cant with that bundle he has on his shoulders,
The top of the hill he will neer come nigh reaching
Till he learns the distinction twixt singing and preaching;”
—James Russell Lowell (18191891)
