Trivial Theory

Famous quotes containing the words trivial and/or theory:

    We have cried in our despair
    That men desert,
    For some trivial affair
    Or noisy, insolent sport,
    Beauty that we have won
    From bitterest hours....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Thus the theory of description matters most.
    It is the theory of the word for those
    For whom the word is the making of the world,
    The buzzing world and lisping firmament.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
