Thomas Disch

Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or disch:

    Deep with the first dead lies London’s daughter,
    Robed in the long friends,
    The grains beyond age, the dark veins of her mother,
    Secret by the unmourning water
    Of the riding Thames.
    After the first death, there is no other.
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    A predilection for genre fiction is symptomatic of a kind of arrested development.
