Easy Axis

Famous quotes containing the words easy and/or axis:

    She who resists as though she would not win,
    By her own treason falls an easy prey.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    A book is not an autonomous entity: it is a relation, an axis of innumerable relations. One literature differs from another, be it earlier or later, not because of the texts but because of the way they are read: if I could read any page from the present time—this one, for instance—as it will be read in the year 2000, I would know what the literature of the year 2000 would be like.
    Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
