Japanese Words

Famous quotes containing the words japanese and/or words:

    I am a lantern—
    My head a moon
    Of Japanese paper, my gold beaten skin
    Infinitely delicate and infinitely expensive.
    Sylvia Plath (1932–1963)

    Overworked assonance, nonsense,
    juxtaposition of words for words’ sake
    without meaning, undefined; imposition,
    deception, indecisive weather-vane;
    disagreeable, inconsequent syllables,
    too malleable, too brittle.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
