Sally Simpson

Famous quotes containing the words sally and/or simpson:

    It is handsomer to remain in the establishment better than the establishment, and conduct that in the best manner, than to make a sally against evil by some single improvement, without supporting it by a total regeneration.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The sun is shining.
    The shadows of the lovers have disappeared.
    They are all eyes; they have some demand on me—
    They want me to be more serious than I want to be.
    —Louis Simpson (b. 1923)
