Isolated Deficiency

Famous quotes containing the words isolated and/or deficiency:

“I can’t earn my own living. I could never make anything turn into money. It’s like making fires. A careful assortment of paper, shavings, faggots and kindling nicely tipped with pitch will never light for me. I have never been present when a cigarette butt, extinct, thrown into a damp and isolated spot, started a conflagration in the California woods.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

“Free verse leaves out the meter and makes up
For the deficiency by church intoning.
Free verse, so called, is really cherished prose....”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
