Famous quotes containing the words philips and/or design:
“Timely blossom, Infant fair,
Fondling of a happy pair,”
—Ambrose Philips (1675–1749)
“If I commit suicide, it will not be to destroy myself but to put myself back together again. Suicide will be for me only one means of violently reconquering myself, of brutally invading my being, of anticipating the unpredictable approaches of God. By suicide, I reintroduce my design in nature, I shall for the first time give things the shape of my will.”
—Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)
