Pyramid Style

Famous quotes containing the words pyramid and/or style:

    So universal and widely related is any transcendent moral greatness, and so nearly identical with greatness everywhere and in every age,—as a pyramid contracts the nearer you approach its apex,—that, when I look over my commonplace-book of poetry, I find that the best of it is oftenest applicable, in part or wholly, to the case of Captain Brown.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It is the style of idealism to console itself for the loss of something old with the ability to gape at something new.
    Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
