Downward Sloping Demand

Famous quotes containing the words downward and/or demand:

    Go on, high ship, since now, upon the shore,
    The snake has left its skin upon the floor.
    Key West sank downward under massive clouds
    And silvers and greens spread over the sea. The moon
    Is at the mast-head and the past is dead.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The small creatures chirp thinly through the dust, through the night.
    O mother
    What shall I cry?
    We demand a committee, a representative committee, a committee of investigation
    RESIGN RESIGN RESIGN
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
