Nobody runs forty yards in basketball. Maybe you run the ninety-four feet of the court; then you stop, not on a dime, but on Miss Liberty’s torch. In football you run over somebody’s face.” “Many writers who choose to be active in the world lose not virtue but time, and that stillness without which literature cannot be made.” “For this is what America is all about. It is the uncrossed desert and the unclimbed ridge. It is the star that is not reached and the harvest that is sleeping in the unplowed ground.” “The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.” |
