Planet Mode

Famous quotes containing the words planet and/or mode:

“It was not important that they survive.
What mattered was that they should bear
Some lineament or character,
Some affluence, if only half-perceived,
In the poverty of their words,
Of the planet of which they were part.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“Literature exists at the same time in the modes of error and truth; it both betrays and obeys its own mode of being.”
