Final Stops

Famous quotes containing the words final and/or stops:

“After the final no there comes a yes
And on that yes the future world depends.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
