Edges

Famous quotes containing the word edges:

    People stay
    Next to the edges of fields, hoping that out of nothing
    Something will come, and it does, but what?
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The essence of the physicality of the most famous blonde in the world is a wholesome eroticism blurred a little round the edges by the fact she is not quite sure what eroticism is. This gives her her tentative luminosity and what makes her, somehow, always more like her own image in the mirror than she is like herself.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    There are moods in which we court suffering, in the hope that here, at least, we shall find reality, sharp peaks and edges of truth. But it turns out to be scene-painting and counterfeit. The only thing grief has taught me, is to know how shallow it is.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
