Vague Objects

Famous quotes containing the words vague and/or objects:

    I know not what the younger dreams—
    Some vague Utopia—and she seems,
    When withered old and skeleton-gaunt,
    An image of such politics.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    But after the intimacy-inducing rituals of puberty, boys who would be men are told we must go it alone, we must achieve our heroism as the Lone Ranger, we must see the other men as threats to our masculine mastery, as objects of competition.
    Frank Pittman (20th century)
