Word Burst

Famous quotes containing the words word and/or burst:

“The word “civilization” to my mind is coupled with death. When I use the word, I see civilization as a crippling, thwarting thing, a stultifying thing. For me it was always so. I don’t believe in the golden ages, you see.... Civilization is the arteriosclerosis of culture.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)

“Chipmunks jump, and
Greensnakes slither.
Rather burst than
Not be with her.”
—Donald Hall (b. 1928)
