Traverse City

Famous quotes containing the words traverse and/or city:

    The wind speeds her,
    Blowing upon her hands
    And watery back.
    She touches the clouds, where she goes
    In the circle of her traverse of the sea.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    I have developed a visionary modern lyric, and, for it, an idiom in which I can write lyrically, colloquially, and dramatically. My subject is city life—with its sofas, hotel corridors, cinemas, underworlds, cardboard suitcases, self-willed buses, banknotes, soapy bathrooms, newspaper-filled parks; and its anguish, its enraged excitement, its great lonely joys.
    Rosemary Tonks (b. 1932)
