Open Pace

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or pace:

“Revolutionary politics, revolutionary art, and oh, the revolutionary mind, is the dullest thing on earth. When we open a “revolutionary” review, or read a “revolutionary” speech, we yawn our heads off. It is true, there is nothing else. Everything is correctly, monotonously, dishearteningly “revolutionary.” What a stupid word! What a stale fuss!”
—Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

“Moving, yet still.
So they run on,
Until, with a falter,
A flicker soon gone
Their pace starts to alter....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
