Larkin

Famous quotes containing the word larkin:

    I am trembling:
    I am suddenly charged with their language, these six strings,
    Suddenly made to see they can declare
    Nothing but harmony, and may not move
    Without a happy stirring of the air
    That builds within this room a second room....
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Only our hearts go beating towards the east.
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Since the majority of me
    Rejects the majority of you,
    Debating ends forthwith, and we
    Divide.
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
