Edges

Famous quotes containing the word edges:

    People stay
    Next to the edges of fields, hoping that out of nothing
    Something will come, and it does, but what?
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    I always used to suffer a great deal if I let myself get too close to reality since the definitive world of the everyday with its hard edges and harsh light did not have enough resonance to echo the demands I made upon experience. It was as if I never experienced experience as experience. Living never lived up to the expectations I had of it—the Bovary syndrome.
    Angela Carter (1942–1992)

    You say, “It is dark.” And in truth, I did place a cloud before your sun. But do you not see how the edges of the cloud are already glowing and turning light.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
