Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or line:
“One way to do it might be by making the scenery penetrate the automobile. A polished black sedan was a good subject, especially if parked at the intersection of a tree-bordered street and one of those heavyish spring skies whose bloated gray clouds and amoeba-shaped blotches of blue seem more physical than the reticent elms and effusive pavement. Now break the body of the car into separate curves and panels; then put it together in terms of reflections.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (18991977)
“A line will take us hours maybe;
Yet if it does not seem a moments thought,
Our stitching and unstitching has been naught.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
