Famous quotes containing the word form:
“Humility is often only the putting on of a submissiveness by which men hope to bring other people to submit to them; it is a more calculated sort of pride, which debases itself with a design of being exalted; and though this vice transform itself into a thousand several shapes, yet the disguise is never more effectual nor more capable of deceiving the world than when concealed under a form of humility.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (16131680)
“Modernity exists in the form of a desire to wipe out whatever came earlier, in the hope of reaching at least a point that could be called a true present, a point of origin that marks a new departure.”
—Paul De Man (19191983)
“I always say, my motto is Art for my sake. If I want to write, I writeand if I dont want to, I wont. The difficulty is to find exactly the form ones passionwork is produced by passion with me ... Mwants to take.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
