Monkey Stopped

Famous quotes containing the words monkey and/or stopped:

    Poetry, it is often said and loudly so, is life’s true mirror. But a monkey looking into a work of literature looks in vain for Socrates.

    I happened to find
    Your picture. That picture. I stopped there cold,
    Like a man raking piles of dead leaves in his yard
    Who has turned up a severed hand.
    William Dewitt Snodgrass (b. 1926)
