Famous quotes containing the words screen and/or adaptation:

    The screen of supreme good fortune curved his absolute smile into a celestial scream.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The real security of Christianity is to be found in its benevolent morality, in its exquisite adaptation to the human heart, in the facility with which its scheme accommodates itself to the capacity of every human intellect, in the consolation which it bears to the house of mourning, in the light with which it brightens the great mystery of the grave.
    Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
