World University

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or university:

    In a world of universal poverty
    The philosophers alone will be fat
    Against the autumn winds
    In an autumn that will be perpetual.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    It is in the nature of allegory, as opposed to symbolism, to beg the question of absolute reality. The allegorist avails himself of a formal correspondence between “ideas” and “things,” both of which he assumes as given; he need not inquire whether either sphere is “real” or whether, in the final analysis, reality consists in their interaction.
    Charles, Jr. Feidelson, U.S. educator, critic. Symbolism and American Literature, ch. 1, University of Chicago Press (1953)
