Evening Personality

Famous quotes containing the words evening and/or personality:

“Much we buy each market day,
More still obtain:
All, all is carried home
By slow evening train.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

“Unable to create a meaningful life for itself, the personality takes its own revenge: from the lower depths comes a regressive form of spontaneity: raw animality forms a counterpoise to the meaningless stimuli and the vicarious life to which the ordinary man is conditioned. Getting spiritual nourishment from this chaos of events, sensations, and devious interpretations is the equivalent of trying to pick through a garbage pile for food.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
