Smiles Strings

Famous quotes containing the words smiles and/or strings:

“It is alive, venomous
it smiles grimly
its words cut—”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

“What drivel it all is!... A string of words called religion. Another string of words called philosophy. Half a dozen other strings called political ideals. And all the words either ambiguous or meaningless. And people getting so excited about them they’ll murder their neighbours for using a word they don’t happen to like. A word that probably doesn’t mean as much as a good belch. Just a noise without even the excuse of gas on the stomach.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
