Famous quotes containing the words latin, square and/or reduced:
“OUR Latin books in motly row,
Invite us to our task
Gay Horace, stately Cicero:
Yet theres one verb, when once we know,
No higher skill we ask:
This ranks all other lore above
Weve learned Amare means to love!”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
“I walked by the Union Square Bar, I was gonna go in. And I saw myself, my reflection in the window. And I thought, I wonder who that bum is. And then I saw it was me. Now look at me, Im a bum. Look at me. Look at you. Youre a bum.”
—J.P. (James Pinckney)
“Realism, whether it be socialist or not, falls short of reality. It shrinks it, attenuates it, falsifies it; it does not take into account our basic truths and our fundamental obsessions: love, death, astonishment. It presents man in a reduced and estranged perspective. Truth is in our dreams, in the imagination.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
