Famous quotes containing the words wider, interests, public and/or service:

    “Words can have no single fixed meaning. Like wayward electrons, they can spin away from their initial orbit and enter a wider magnetic field. No one owns them or has a proprietary right to dictate how they will be used.”
    —David Lehman (b. 1948)

    “two strangers uniting in the interests of torment”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)

    “Mass ought to be in Latin, unless you cd. do it in Greek or Chinese. In fact, any abracadabra that no bloody member of the public or half-educated ape of a clargimint cd. think he understood.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “The masochist: “I send my tormentor hurrying hither and thither in the service of my suffering and desire.””
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
