Famous quotes containing the words abstract and/or machines:
“For although memories, of a season, for example,
Melt into a single snapshot, one cannot guard, treasure
That stalled moment. It too is flowing, fleeting;
It is a picture of flowing, scenery, though living, mortal,
Over which an abstract action is laid out in blunt,
Harsh strokes.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“In Hell all the messages you ever left on answering machines will be played back to you.”
—Judy Horacek (b. 1961)
