Thought Screens

Famous quotes containing the words thought and/or screens:

    “Every fact is related on one side to sensation, and, on the other, to morals. The game of thought is, on the appearance of one of these two sides, to find the other: given the upper, to find the under side.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “At length to hospital
    This man was limited,
    Where screens leant on the wall
    And idle headphones hung.
    Since he would soon be dead
    They let his wife come along
    And pour out tea, each day.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
