Having earned an arts degree from York University many moons ago, R. S.

Quotes by R.S. Maxwell  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“According to Wordsworth, a poet is not to write his verse during the heated moments of powerful feeling, but later, in a state of tranquillity, remembering those feelings with a clear mind. Perhaps Martynsborough is the perfect place for that.”
R.S. Maxwell, Through a Darkening Glass

“To the majestic house cat—may they be batting about balls of yarn in some happy circle of hell.”
R.S. Maxwell, Through a Darkening Glass

“Sometimes the imagination of a thing can have more gravity than the thing itself; the promise of a kiss as opposed to the act—between that space, that hair’s breadth, one can find truth, Truth with a capital T!”
R.S. Maxwell, Through a Darkening Glass
