Famous quotes containing the word tate:
“May Allah keep her
And other wives from me. But this young slave
For the Caliph? Well, only her thin mouth to save
My soul I can’t forget, nor her slack eyes:
The oasis of age is sand and lies.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“The use of arms is ownership
Of the appropriate gun. It is ownership that brings
Victory that is not hinted at in “Das Kapital.”
I think there is never but one true war
So let us as you desire perfect our trade.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“From her I got but gave no wealthiness:
Fleeced I the giver, yet am penniless.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
