Famous quotes containing the words mark and/or waugh:

    The things that were coming to be talked about
    Have come and gone and are still remembered
    As being recent. There is a grain of curiosity
    At the base of some new thing, that unrolls
    Its question mark like a new wave on the shore.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    If we can’t stamp out literature in the country, we can at least stop its being brought in from outside.
    —Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)
