Man Charged

Famous quotes containing the words man and/or charged:

    The last man of the world-city no longer wants to live—he may cling to life as an individual, but as a type, as an aggregate, no, for it is a characteristic of this collective existence that it eliminates the terror of death.
    Oswald Spengler (1880–1936)

    I am trembling:
    I am suddenly charged with their language, these six strings,
    Suddenly made to see they can declare
    Nothing but harmony, and may not move
    Without a happy stirring of the air
    That builds within this room a second room....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
