Greatly Reduced

Famous quotes containing the words greatly and/or reduced:

    Rightly to be great
    Is not to stir without great argument,
    But greatly to find quarrel in a straw
    When honor’s at the stake.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Realism, whether it be socialist or not, falls short of reality. It shrinks it, attenuates it, falsifies it; it does not take into account our basic truths and our fundamental obsessions: love, death, astonishment. It presents man in a reduced and estranged perspective. Truth is in our dreams, in the imagination.
    Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
