Secluded Place

Famous quotes containing the words secluded and/or place:

    A too-fluent green
    Suggested malice in the dry machine

    Of ocean, pondering dank stratagem.
    Who then beheld the figures of the clouds
    Like blooms secluded in the thick marine?
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The world is a puzzling place today. All these banks sending us credit cards, with our names on them. Well, we didn’t order any credit cards! We don’t spend what we don’t have. So we just cut them in half and throw them out, just as soon as we open them in the mail. Imagine a bank sending credit cards to two ladies over a hundred years old! What are those folks thinking?
    Sarah Louise Delany (b. 1889)
