Famous quotes containing the words american, alpine and/or club:

    The common faults of American language are an ambition of effect, a want of simplicity, and a turgid abuse of terms.
    James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851)

    I held a bayonet
    that was for the earth of your stomach.
    The belly button singing its puzzle.
    The intestines winding like the alpine roads.
    It was made to enter you
    as you have entered me....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    We have ourselves to answer for.
