Simple Squared

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or squared:

“All propaganda or popularization involves a putting of the complex into the simple, but such a move is instantly deconstructive. For if the complex can be put into the simple, then it cannot be as complex as it seemed in the first place; and if the simple can be an adequate medium of such complexity, then it cannot after all be as simple as all that.”
—Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)

“Dreams are toys.
Yet for this once, yea, superstitiously,
I will be squared by this.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
