Eco Received

Famous quotes containing the words eco and/or received:

    I would define the poetic effect as the capacity that a text displays for continuing to generate different readings, without ever being completely consumed.
    —Umberto Eco (b. 1932)

    He could walk, or rather turn about in his little garden, and feel more solid happiness from the flourishing of a cabbage or the growing of a turnip than was ever received from the most ostentatious show the vanity of man could possibly invent. He could delight himself with thinking, “Here will I set such a root, because my Camilla likes it; here, such another, because it is my little David’s favorite.”
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
