Material Shape

Famous quotes containing the words material and/or shape:

“Ours is a culture based on excess, on overproduction; the result is a steady loss of sharpness in our sensory experience. All the conditions of modern life—its material plenitude, its sheer crowdedness—conjoin to dull our sensory faculties.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

“But a camel’s all lumpy
And bumpy and humpy—
Any shape does for me.”
