Larkin

Famous quotes containing the word larkin:

    As they wend away
    A voice is heard singing
    Of Kitty, or Katy,
    As if the name meant once
    All love, all beauty.
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    ... never, walking away
    As light fails, to notice the first star
    Pulsing alone in a long shell-coloured sky....
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Strange to know nothing, never to be sure
    Of what is true or right or real,
    But forced to qualify or so I feel....
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
