Famous quotes containing the word form:

    “At any rate, let us love for a while, for a year or so, you and me. That’s a form of divine drunkenness that we can all try.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    “A true poem is distinguished not so much by a felicitous expression, or any thought it suggests, as by the atmosphere which surrounds it. Most have beauty of outline merely, and are striking as the form and bearing of a stranger; but true verses come toward us indistinctly, as the very breath of all friendliness, and envelop us in their spirit and fragrance.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “People resent articulacy, as if articulacy were a form of vice.”
    —Frederic Raphael (b. 1931)
