Lodge

Famous quotes containing the word lodge:

    I would in rich and golden coloured raine,
    With tempting showers in pleasant sort discend,
    —Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)

    The wrinkles in my brow,
    The furrows in my face,
    Say, limping age will lodge him now
    Where youth must give him place.
    Thomas Vaux, 2d Baron Vaux Of Harrowden (1510–1566)

    Any language is necessarily a finite system applied with different degrees of creativity to an infinite variety of situations, and most of the words and phrases we use are “prefabricated” in the sense that we don’t coin new ones every time we speak.
    —David Lodge (b. 1935)
