Called Updike

Famous quotes containing the words called and/or updike:

    I’m mooring my rowboat
    at the dock of the island called God.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.
    —John Updike (b. 1932)
