Singular Nouns

Famous quotes containing the words singular and/or nouns:

“mouth to mouth, the covers
pulled over our shoulders
we drowse as horses drowse afield,
in accord; though the fall cold
surrounds our warm bed, and though
by day we are singular and often lonely.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“Children and savages use only nouns or names of things, which they convert into verbs, and apply to analogous mental acts.”
