Omnibus Press

Famous quotes containing the words omnibus and/or press:

    An omnibus across the bridge
    Crawls like a yellow butterfly,
    And, here and there, a passer-by
    Shows like a little restless midge.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    Whereas the comic confronts simply logical contradictions, the tragic confronts a moral predicament. Not minor matters of true and false but crucial questions of right and wrong, good and evil face the tragic character in a tragic situation.
    —Marie Collins Swabey. Comic Laughter, ch. 7, Yale University Press (1961)
