Famous quotes containing the words air, reserve and/or forces:

From the hearts anarch and responsible town
Return by subway-mouth to life again,
Bearing the morning papers,”

—Marcel Proust (18711922)
“Progressive art can assist people to learn not only about the objective forces at work in the society in which they live, but also about the intensely social character of their interior lives. Ultimately, it can propel people toward social emancipation.”
