Earth Mode

Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or mode:

    There by some wrinkled stones round a leafless tree
    With beards askew, their eyes dull and wild
    Twelve ragged men, the council of charity
    Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Literature exists at the same time in the modes of error and truth; it both betrays and obeys its own mode of being.
