Thin Layer

Famous quotes containing the words thin and/or layer:

    Twilight and bulb define
    the brown room, the overstuffed plum sofa,
    the boy, and the girl’s thin hands above his head.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    This world is run by people who know how to do things. They know how things work. They are equipped. Up there, there’s a layer of people who run everything. But we—we’re just peasants. We don’t understand what’s going on, and we can’t do anything.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
