Singular Mass

Famous quotes containing the words singular and/or mass:

“though the fall cold

surrounds our warm bed, and though
by day we are singular and often lonely.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“At first, he savored only the material quality of the sounds secreted by the instruments. And it had already been a great pleasure when, beneath the tiny line of the violin, slender, resistant, dense and driving, he noticed the mass of the piano’s part seeking to arise in a liquid splashing, polymorphous, undivided, level and clashing like the purple commotion of wave charmed and flattened by the moonlight.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
