Modern Swing

Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or swing:

    “All that remains to the mother in modern consumer society is the role of scapegoat; psychoanalysis uses huge amounts of money and time to persuade analysands to foist their problems on to the absent mother, who has no opportunity to utter a word in her own defence. Hostility to the mother in our societies is an index of mental health.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    “The bells, I say, the bells break down their tower;
    And swing I know not where.”
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)
