Underlying Nonstandard Model

Famous quotes containing the words underlying and/or model:

    Sport in the sense of a mass-spectacle, with death to add to the underlying excitement, comes into existence when a population has been drilled and regimented and depressed to such an extent that it needs at least a vicarious participation in difficult feats of strength or skill or heroism in order to sustain its waning life-sense.
    Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)

    When Titian was mixing brown madder,
    His model was posed up a ladder.
    Said Titian, “That position
    Calls for coition,”
    So he lept up the ladder and had her.
