Mortimer Trap

Famous quotes containing the words mortimer and/or trap:

    The shelf life of the modern hardback writer is somewhere between the milk and the yoghurt.
    —John Mortimer (b. 1923)

    The little lifting helplessness, the queer
    Whimper-whine; whose unridiculous
    Lost softness softly makes a trap for us.
    And makes a curse.
