Plate Motions

Famous quotes containing the words plate and/or motions:

    I sometimes have the sense that I live my life as a writer with my nose pressed against the wide, shiny plate glass window of the “mainstream” culture. The world seems full of straight, large-circulation, slick periodicals which wouldn’t think of reviewing my book and bookstores which will never order it.
    Jan Clausen (b. 1943)

    She made of the motions of her wrist
    The grandiose gestures
    Of her thought.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
