Nerve Nets

Famous quotes containing the words nerve and/or nets:

“Social questions are too sectional, too topical, too temporal to move a man to the mighty effort which is needed to produce great poetry. Prison reform may nerve Charles Reade to produce an effective and businesslike prose melodrama; but it could never produce Hamlet, Faust, or Peer Gynt.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

“Shakespearean fish swam the sea, far away from land;
Romantic fish swam in nets coming to the hand....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
