Memory Systems

Famous quotes containing the words memory and/or systems:

    “There are no stars to-night
    But those of memory.
    Yet how much room for memory there is
    In the loose girdle of soft rain.”
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    “People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)
