Famous quotes containing the words fame and/or award:
“I can forgive even that wrong of wrongs,
Those undreamt accidents that have made me
Seeing that Fame has perished this long while,
Being but a part of ancient ceremony
Notorious, till all my priceless things
Are but a post the passing dogs defile.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
