Famous quotes containing the word legends:

    “Therefore our legends always come around to seeming legendary,
    A path decorated with our comings and goings. Or so I’ve been told.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Sometimes legends make reality, and become more useful than the facts.”
    —Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)

    “Farm boys wild to couple
    With anything with soft-wooded trees
    With mounds of earthmounds
    Of pine straw will keep themselves off
    Animals by legends of their own:”
    —James Dickey (b. 1923)
