Famous quotes containing the words kids and/or mirage:
“But it’s hard to farm
Between the stumps:
The cows get thin, the milk tastes funny,
The kids grow up and go to college
They don’t come back
the little fir-trees do”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
“Whom we desired above all things to know,
Sister of the mirage and echo.”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
