Heap

Famous quotes containing the word heap:

    Squalor spreads its hideous length
    through the carts and the asses’ feet,
    squalor coils and reopens
    and creeps under barrow
    and heap of refuse....
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    We cannot be any stronger in our foreign policy—for all the bombs and guns we may heap up in our arsenals—than we are in the spirit which rules inside the country. Foreign policy, like a river, cannot rise above its source.
    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    Self-expression is not enough; experiment is not enough; the recording of special moments or cases is not enough. All of the arts have broken faith or lost connection with their origin and function. They have ceased to be concerned with the legitimate and permanent material of art.
    —Jane Heap (c. 1880–1964)
