Famous quotes containing the words gray, human and/or culture:

    the gray filth of it:
    the knowledge that humankind,
    delicate Man, whose flesh
    responds to a caress, whose eyes
    are flowers that perceive the stars ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Not infrequently, we encounter copies of important human beings; and here, too, as in the case of paintings, most people prefer the copies to the originals.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Culture is the suggestion, from certain best thoughts, that a man has a range of affinities through which he can modulate the violence of any master-tones that have a droning preponderance in his scale, and succor him against himself. Culture redresses this imbalance, puts him among equals and superiors, revives the delicious sense of sympathy, and warns him of the dangers of solitude and repulsion.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
