Updike Work

Famous quotes containing the words updike and/or work:

    Truth should not be forced; it should simply manifest itself, like a woman who has in her privacy reflected and coolly decided to bestow herself upon a certain man.
    —John Updike (b. 1932)

    Poets that lasting Marble seek
    Must carve in Latine or in Greek,
    We write in Sand, our Language grows,
    And like the Tide our work o’erflows.
    Edmund Waller (1606–1687)
