Odd Index

Famous quotes containing the words odd and/or index:

“Young people love what is interesting and odd, no matter how true or false it is. More mature minds love what is interesting and odd about truth.

—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“Exile as a mode of genius no longer exists; in place of Joyce we have the fragments of work appearing in Index on Censorship.”
