Chronic Lung

Famous quotes containing the words chronic and/or lung:

    Adder-faced singularity
    Espouses a nailed-up childhood,
    Skin-disease pardons
    Soft horror of living,
    A gabble is forgiven
    By chronic solitude.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Dylan used to sound like a lung cancer victim singing Woody Guthrie. Now he sounds like a Rolling Stone singing Immanuel Kant.
    —Also quoted in Robert Shelton, No Direction Home, ch. 2, “Prophet Without Honor” (1986)
