Inverted Yield

Famous quotes containing the words inverted and/or yield:

“Ulysses ... is a dogged attempt to cover the universe with mud, an inverted Victorianism, an attempt to make crossness and dirt succeed where sweetness and light failed, a simplification of the human character in the interests of Hell.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)

“Thus did he yield me in the shady night
A wondrous and instructive light,
Which taught me that under our feet there is,
As o’er our heads, a place of bliss.”
