Deeper

Famous quotes containing the word deeper:

    ... deeper
    and deeper into Imagination’s
    holy forest, as travelers
    followed the Zohar’s dusty
    shimmering roads ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    What is the worst of woes that wait on age?
    What stamps the wrinkle deeper on the brow?
    To view each loved one blotted from life’s page,
    And be alone on earth, as I am now.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    In the deeper layers of the modern consciousness ... every attempt to succeed is an act of aggression, leaving one alone and guilty and defenseless among enemies: one is punished for success. This is our intolerable dilemma: that failure is a kind of death and success is evil and dangerous, is—ultimately—impossible.
    Robert Warshow (1917–1955)
