Floating World

Famous quotes containing the words floating and/or world:

    I myself have seen the floating ships
    And nothing will ever be the same
    The shouts,
    The harrowing voices within the house.
    I stand apart with an army:
    My mind is graven with ships.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    The formation of an oppositional world view is necessary for feminist struggle. This means that the world we have most intimately known, the world in which we feel “safe” ... must be radically changed. Perhaps it is the knowledge that everyone must change, not just those we label enemies or oppressors, that has so far served to check our revolutionary impulses.
    Bell (c. 1955)
