Concrete Particulars

Famous quotes containing the words concrete and/or particulars:

    “To step over the low wall that divides
    Road from concrete walk above the shore
    Brings sharply back something known long before
    The miniature gaiety of seasides.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Two things of opposite natures seem to depend
    On one another, as a man depends
    On a woman, day on night, the imagined
    On the real. This is the origin of change.
    Winter and spring, cold copulars, embrace
    And forth the particulars of rapture come.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
