Veil Falls

Famous quotes containing the words veil and/or falls:

“For me, it is as though at every moment the actual world had completely lost its actuality. As though there was nothing there; as though there were no foundations for anything or as though it escaped us. Only one thing, however, is vividly present: the constant tearing of the veil of appearances; the constant destruction of everything in construction. Nothing holds together, everything falls apart.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)

“... that darkling brightness which falls from the stars.”
—Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
