Felt Larkin

Famous quotes containing the words felt and/or larkin:

    He felt with the force of a revelation that to throw up the clods of earth manfully is as beneficent as to revolutionise the world. It was not the matter of the work, but the mind that went into it, that counted—and the man who was not content to do small things well would leave great things undone.
    Ellen Glasgow (1874–1945)

    Your petalled head of flames
    Continuously exploding.
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
