Famous quotes containing the word names:
“Ideas about life organize perception; names of emotions organize sensations; rules of syntax organize thought. But pain comes on its own.”

“A knowledge that people live close by is,
I think, enough. And even if only first names are ever exchanged
The people who own them seem rock-true and marvelously self-sufficient.”

The sky is no longer a junk-shop,
Full of javelins and old fire-balls,
Triangles and the names of girls.”
