Famous quotes containing the words cold and/or press:
“Black pit cold and light-year
Flame tongue of the dragon
Licks the sun
The sun is but a morning star”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
“It is in the nature of allegory, as opposed to symbolism, to beg the question of absolute reality. The allegorist avails himself of a formal correspondence between “ideas” and “things,” both of which he assumes as given; he need not inquire whether either sphere is “real” or whether, in the final analysis, reality consists in their interaction.”
—Charles, Jr. Feidelson, U.S. educator, critic. Symbolism and American Literature, ch. 1, University of Chicago Press (1953)
