Famous quotes containing the words sharp and/or history:
“O for some sharp swish of a branch
there is no scent of resin
in this place.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
