Produces Shades

Famous quotes containing the words produces and/or shades:

    Already the writers are complaining that there is too much freedom. They need some pressure. The worse your daily life, the better your art. If you have to be careful because of oppression and censorship, this pressure produces diamonds.
    Tatyana Tolstaya (b. 1951)

    May we two stand,
    When we are dead, beyond the setting suns,
    A little from other shades apart,
    With mingling hair, and play upon one lute.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
