Passing Loops

Famous quotes containing the words passing and/or loops:

“Young poets bewail the passing of love; old poets, the passing of time. There is surprisingly little difference.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“An accurate charting of the American woman’s progress through history might look more like a corkscrew tilted slightly to one side, its loops inching closer to the line of freedom with the passage of time—but like a mathematical curve approaching infinity, never touching its goal. . . . Each time, the spiral turns her back just short of the finish line.”
—Susan Faludi (20th century)
