Devices Share

Famous quotes containing the words devices and/or share:

    Soon silence will have passed into legend. Man has turned his back on silence. Day after day he invents machines and devices that increase noise and distract humanity from the essence of life, contemplation, meditation.... Tooting, howling, screeching, booming, crashing, whistling, grinding, and trilling bolster his ego. His anxiety subsides. His inhuman void spreads monstrously like a gray vegetation.
    Jean Arp (1887–1948)

    O hurry to the ragged wood, for there
    I will drive all those lovers out and cry
    O my share of the world, O yellow hair!
    No one has ever loved but you and I.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
