Some of the park’s literary touches could have used a little proofreading.
A small, literary-themed park in Denver’s Lowry neighborhood touts itself as a space to “appreciate great literature,” but several of the quotations painted or sculpted around the grounds as a nod to writers and readers are misattributed or written incorrectly.
“I’m very familiar with the authors of the quotes,” Ferreira said. “If a good friend of yours was misquoted, you’d immediately recognize it.” A quotation painted on a wall leading into the park — “The mind, once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions” — is attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson. But when the phrase is searched online, it’s credited to both Emerson and Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr., demonstrating the danger in relying on a search engine to divine a quotation’s provenance.
