Pound Note

Famous quotes containing the words pound and/or note:

    I have never known anyone worth a damn who wasn’t irascible.
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    And songs climb out of the flames of the near campfires,
    Pale, pastel things exquisite in their frailness
    With a note or two to indicate it isn’t lost,
    On them at least. The songs decorate our notion of the world
    And mark its limits, like a frieze of soap-bubbles.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
