Neat

Famous quotes containing the word neat:

“Photographs may be more memorable than moving images because they are a neat slice of time, not a flow. Television is a stream of underselected images, each of which cancels its predecessor. Each still photograph is a privileged moment, turned into a slim object that one can keep and look at again.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

“A fox’s nose touches twig, leaf;
Two eyes serve a movement, that now
And again now, and now, and now

Sets neat prints into the snow”
—Ted Hughes (b. 1930)

“But his neat cookery! He cut our roots in characters,
And sauced our broths, as Juno had been sick
And he her dieter.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
