Style Unix Clock

Famous quotes containing the words style and/or clock:

“Everything ponderous, viscous, and solemnly clumsy, all long- winded and boring types of style are developed in profuse variety among Germans—forgive me the fact that even Goethe’s prose, in its mixture of stiffness and elegance, is no exception, being a reflection of the “good old time” to which it belongs, and a reflection of German taste at a time when there still was a “German taste”Ma rococo taste in moribus et artibus.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“The source of poetry that
seeing the clock stopped, says,
The clock has stopped

that ticked yesterday so well?”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
