More on departure
Humor, for me, is really a gate of departure. Its a way of enticing a reader into a poem so that less funny things can take place later. It really is not an end in itself, but a means to an end.
Billy CollinsBilly Collins Right now, they feel they have lost their voice, and their miseries have increased since my departure.
Benazir BhuttoBenazir Bhutto There is a time for departure even when there’s no certain place to go.
Tennessee WilliamsTennessee Williams To cultivate an English accent is already a departure away from what you are.
Sean ConnerySean Connery They shouldn’t make the departure of a dancer so tear jerky because nobody’s going to war.
Mr. TMr. T The myths have always condemned those who ‘looked back.’ Condemned them, whatever the paradise may have been which they were leaving. Hence this shadow over each departure from your decision.
