Elementary Forms

Famous quotes containing the words elementary and/or forms:

    As if paralyzed by the national fear of ideas, the democratic distrust of whatever strikes beneath the prevailing platitudes, it evades all resolute and honest dealing with what, after all, must be every healthy literature’s elementary materials.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    The blood weeps from my heart when I do shape,
    In forms imaginary, th’ unguided days
    And rotten times that you shall look upon
    When I am sleeping with my ancestors.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
