Grammatical Syllables

Famous quotes containing the words grammatical and/or syllables:

    “Evil is simply
    a grammatical error:
    a failure to leap
    the precipice
    between “he”
    and “I.””
    —Linda Pastan (b. 1932)

    “I remember the neckcurls, limp and damp as tendrils;
    And her quick look, a sidelong pickerel smile;
    And how, once startled into talk, the light syllables leaped for
    her.”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
