Semantic Garbage

Famous quotes containing the words semantic and/or garbage:

“Watt’s need of semantic succour was at times so great that he would set to trying names on things, and on himself, almost as a woman hats.”

“But could a dream send up through onion fumes
Its white and violet, fight with fried potatoes
And yesterday’s garbage ripening in the hall,
Flutter, or sing an aria down these rooms
Even if we were willing to let it in,”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
