Real Car

Famous quotes containing the words real and/or car:

“nor till the poets among us can be
literalists of
the imagination—above
insolence and triviality and can present

for inspection, ‘imaginary gardens with real toads in them’,
shall we have”
—Marianne Moore (1887–1972)

“One way to do it might be by making the scenery penetrate the automobile. A polished black sedan was a good subject, especially if parked at the intersection of a tree-bordered street and one of those heavyish spring skies whose bloated gray clouds and amoeba-shaped blotches of blue seem more physical than the reticent elms and effusive pavement. Now break the body of the car into separate curves and panels; then put it together in terms of reflections.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
