Dominant Eye

Famous quotes containing the words dominant and/or eye:

    What makes revolutionists is either self-pity, or indignation for the sake of others, or a sympathetic perception of the dominant undercurrent of progress in things. The nature before us is revolutionist from the direct sense of personal worth,... that pride of life, which to the Greek was a heavenly grace.
    Walter Pater (1839–1894)

    Sunday at noon through hyaline thin air
    Sees down the street,
    And in the camera of my eye depicts
    Row-houses and row-lives:
    Glass after glass, door after door the same,
    Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
