Famous quotes containing the words notable, epic and/or poems:
“Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it’s more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“The epic of disbelief
Blares oftener and soon, will soon be constant.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Our poems will have failed if our readers are not brought by them beyond the poems.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)
