Famous quotes containing the word violent:

    “Lift up our eyes to you?
    no, God, we stare and stare,
    upon a nearer thing
    that greets us here,
    Death, violent and near.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “It was a cruel city, but it was a lovely one, a savage city, yet it had such tenderness, a bitter, harsh, and violent catacomb of stone and steel and tunneled rock, slashed savagely with light, and roaring, fighting a constant ceaseless warfare of men and of machinery; and yet it was so sweetly and so delicately pulsed, as full of warmth, of passion, and of love, as it was full of hate.”
    —Thomas Wolfe (1900–1938)

    “I believe that truth has only one face: that of a violent contradiction.”
    —Georges Bataille (1897–1962)
