Late Gothic Revival

Famous quotes containing the words late, gothic and/or revival:

    “The fire I praise was once perduring flame
    Till it snuffs with our generation out;
    No matter, it’s all one, it’s but a name
    Not as late honeysuckle half so stout....”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “A Gothic cathedral affirms that it was done by us and not done by us.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Mother goddesses are just as silly a notion as father gods. If a revival of the myths of these cults gives woman emotional satisfaction, it does so at the price of obscuring the real conditions of life. This is why they were invented in the first place.”
    —Angela Carter (1940–1992)
