Famous quotes containing the words tribal and/or age:
“What is this conversation, now secular,
A speech not mine yet speaking for me in
The heaving jelly of my tribal air?
It rises in the throat, it climbs the tongue,
It perches there for secret tutelage....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“Old age is
a flight of small
cheeping birds
skimming
bare trees
above a snow glaze.”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
