Famous quotes containing the words arcane, literature and/or media:

    “The small sleek one wants to stop,
    docile to the imploring soul of the trashbasket,
    but the young tall curly one
    wants to walk on; the glistening sidewalk
    entices him to arcane happenings.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “If a nation’s literature declines, the nation atrophies and decays.”
    —Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

    “The media have just buried the last yuppie, a pathetic creature who had not heard the news that the great pendulum of public conciousness has just swung from Greed to Compassion and from Tex-Mex to meatballs.”
    —Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
