Called Updike

Famous quotes containing the words called and/or updike:

    I doubt if a single individual could be found from the whole of mankind free from some form of insanity. The only difference is one of degree. A man who sees a gourd and takes it for his wife is called insane because this happens to very few people.
    Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)

    Existence itself does not feel horrible; it feels like an ecstasy, rather, which we have only to be still to experience.
    —John Updike (b. 1932)
