Sat/history

Famous quotes containing the words sat and/or history:

    The furniture,
    Taken out and examined under the starlight, pleads
    No contest. And the backs of those who sat there before.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The custard is setting; meanwhile
    I not only have my own history to worry about
    But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
    Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
    Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
