Indirect Object

Famous quotes containing the words indirect and/or object:

    “Imagination is always the fabric of social life and the dynamic of history. The influence of real needs and compulsions, of real interests and materials, is indirect because the crowd is never conscious of it.”
    —Simone Weil (1909–1943)

    “Thy hatred for this misery befallen;
    On me already lost, me than thyself
    More miserable. Both have sinned, but thou
    Against God only; I against God and thee,
    And to the place of judgment will return,
    There with my cries importune Heaven, that all
    The sentence, from thy head removed, may light
    On me, sole cause to thee of all this woe,
    Me, me only, just object of his ire.””
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
