Sentence Imposed

Famous quotes containing the words sentence and/or imposed:

    The pipe, with solemn interposing puff,
    Makes half a sentence at a time enough;
    The dozing sages drop the drowsy strain,
    Then pause, and puff—and speak, and pause again.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)

    ‘Twas Age imposed on poems
    Their gather-roses burden
    To warn against the danger
    That overtakes lovers
    From being overflooded
    With happiness should have it
    And yet not know they have it.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
