Famous quotes containing the words surface and/or processes:

“It was a pretty game, played on the smooth surface of the pond, a man against a loon.”

“The higher processes are all processes of simplification. The novelist must learn to write, and then he must unlearn it; just as the modern painter learns to draw, and then learns when utterly to disregard his accomplishment, when to subordinate it to a higher and truer effect.”
