Famous quotes containing the word legends:

    Sometimes legends make reality, and become more useful than the facts.
    Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)

    a child’s
    Forgotten mornings when he walked with his mother
    Through the parables
    Of sunlight
    And the legends of the green chapels

    And the twice-told fields of infancy
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Therefore our legends always come around to seeming legendary,
    A path decorated with our comings and goings. Or so I’ve been told.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
