Reached

Famous quotes containing the word reached:

    O reason, reason, abstract phantom of the waking state, I had already expelled you from my dreams, now I have reached a point where those dreams are about to become fused with apparent realities: now there is only room here for myself.
    Louis Aragon (1897–1982)

    Slim Woman,
    all your ample parts
    have become thin
    and even the thin ones
    have reached the limit
    of thinness.
    What’s the use of anger here?
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    It is a mass language only in the same sense that its baseball slang is born of baseball players. That is, it is a language which is being molded by writers to do delicate things and yet be within the grasp of superficially educated people. It is not a natural growth, much as its proletarian writers would like to think so. But compared with it at its best, English has reached the Alexandrian stage of formalism and decay.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
