Special Pair

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or pair:

“In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It’s the drowning out of false voices.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)

“I should have been a pair of ragged claws
Scuttling across the floors of silent seas.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
