Scene

Famous quotes containing the word scene:

“Once the state has been founded, there can no longer be any heroes. They come on the scene only in uncivilized conditions.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

“The poem of the mind in the act of finding
What will suffice. It has not always had
To find: the scene was set; it repeated what
Was in the script.
Then the theatre was changed
To something else. Its past was a souvenir.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
