Famous quotes containing the words heavily and/or modified:
“It is terrible to die of thirst on the ocean. Do you have to salt your truth so heavily that it no longer—quenches thirst?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Poetry presents indivisible wholes of human consciousness, modified and ordered by the stringent requirements of form. Prose, aiming at a definite and concrete goal, generally suppresses everything inessential to its purpose; poetry, existing only to exhibit itself as an aesthetic object, aims only at completeness and perfection of form.”
—Richard Harter Fogle, U.S. critic, educator. The Imagery of Keats and Shelley, ch. 1, University of North Carolina Press (1949)
