Penny Paper

Famous quotes containing the words penny and/or paper:

    “There is no passion more dominant and instinctive in the human spirit than the need of the country to which one belongs....

    “Poems stirred
    into paper coffee-cups, eaten
    with petals on rye in the
    sun—the cold shadows in back,
    and the traffic grinding the
    borders of spring ...”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
