Famous quotes containing the words crystal and/or stasis:
“A crystal of breath,
your irreversible
witness.”
—Paul Celan [Paul Antschel] (1920–1970)
“I shall speak of ... how melancholy and utopia preclude one another. How they fertilize one another.... Of the revulsion that follows one insight and precedes the next.... Of superabundance and surfeit. Of stasis in progress. And of myself, for whom melancholy and utopia are heads and tails of the same coin.”
—Günther Grass (b. 1927)
