Homer Tosses Marge

Famous quotes containing the words homer, tosses and/or marge:

    In Homer and Chaucer there is more of the innocence and serenity of youth than in the more modern and moral poets. The Iliad is not Sabbath but morning reading, and men cling to this old song, because they still have moments of unbaptized and uncommitted life, which give them an appetite for more.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It tosses up our losses, the torn seine,
    The shattered lobster pot, the broken oar
    And the gear of foreign dead men. The sea has many voices,
    Many gods and many voices.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Does frightening women make you proud? Or is pride something monsters don’t understand?
    Louis Vittes, and Gene Fowler, Jr.. Marge (Gloria Talbott)
