Famous quotes

  • « A public expectation, it has to be said, not of poetry as such but of political positions variously approvable by mutually disapproving groups. »
    Seamus Heaney
  • « I've hung out at dozens of playgrounds, bored out of my mind, with not even a look of comfort from disapproving mothers all around me. Either they think I'm a pedophile or a deadbeat dad. That's what I get for being a single dad - suspicious looks at the playground. »
    Dominic West
