Famous quotes containing the word interior:

    Professor Eucalyptus said, “The search
    For reality is as momentous as
    The search for god.” It is the philosopher’s search
    For an interior made exterior
    And the poet’s search for the same exterior made
    Interior: breathless things broodingly abreath....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The night
    Makes everything grotesque. Is it because
    Night is the nature of man’s interior world?
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    When the delicious beauty of lineaments loses its power, it is because a more delicious beauty has appeared; that an interior and durable form has been disclosed.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
