More quotes by John Hollander
When Adam found his rib was gone He cursed and sighed and cried and swore And looked with cold resentment on The creature God has used it for.
John Hollander
A long project is like a secret houseguest, hidden in your study, waiting to be fed and visited.
John Hollander
