Deeper

Famous quotes containing the word deeper:

    “My beards, attend
    To the laughter of evil: the fierce ricanery
    With the ferocious chu-chot-chu between, the sobs
    For breath to laugh the louder, the deeper gasps
    Uplifting the completest rhetoric
    Of sneers....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “Most Americans are born drunk, and really require a little wine or beer to sober them. They have a sort of permanent intoxication from within, a sort of invisible champagne.... Americans do not need to drink to inspire them to do anything, though they do sometimes, I think, need a little for the deeper and more delicate purpose of teaching them how to do nothing.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    “Building worlds is not enough for the deeper urging mind;
    but a loving heart sates the striving spirit.”
    —Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
