Desired Response

Famous quotes containing the words desired and/or response:

“The human head is bigger than the globe. It conceives itself as containing more. It can think and rethink itself and ourselves from any desired point outside the gravitational pull of the earth. It starts by writing one thing and later reads itself as something else. The human head is monstrous.”
—Günther Grass (b. 1927)

“The reason can give nothing at all Like the response to desire.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
