Age Lines

Famous quotes containing the words age and/or lines:

    For each age is a dream that is dying,
    Or one that is coming to birth.
    —Arthur William Edgar O’Shaughnessy (1844–1881)

    We stand in the tumult of a festival.
    What festival? This loud, disordered mooch?
    These hospitaliers? These brute-like guests?
    These musicians dubbing at a tragedy,
    A-dub, a-dub, which is made up of this:
    That there are no lines to speak? There is no play.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
