Henry Fry

Famous quotes containing the words henry and/or fry:

    That which endures is not one or another association of living forms, but the process of which the cosmos is the product, and of which these are among the transitory expressions.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    Poetry is the language in which man explores his own amazement ... says heaven and earth in one word ... speaks of himself and his predicament as though for the first time. It has the virtue of being able to say twice as much as prose in half the time, and the drawback, if you do not give it your full attention, of seeming to say half as much in twice the time.
    —Christopher Fry (b. 1907)
