Famous quotes containing the words felt and/or larkin:
“She had never known before how much the country meant to her. The chirping of the insects in the long grass had been like the sweetest music.

Under the long shaggy ridges, she felt the future stirring.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
“While all this was going on
Mister Alfred Tennyson sat like a baby
Doing his poetic business.”
