Famous quotes containing the words prehistoric and/or kent:

    “Of course
    the New Testament is very small.
    Its mouth opens four times
    as out-of-date as a prehistoric monster,
    yet somehow man-made....”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Main Street was never the same. I read Gide and tried to
    translate Proust. Now nothing is real except French wine.
    For absurdity is reality, my loneliness unreal, my mind tired.
    And I shall die an old Parisian.”
    —Conrad Kent Rivers (1933–1968)
