Water Depth

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or depth:

    Because of neglect, Son,
    though well-forged
    in affectionate bonds,
    Love in time
    will trickle away
    like water through cupped hands.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    It is thus that the few rare lucid well-disposed people who have had to struggle on the earth find themselves at certain hours of the day or night in the depth of certain authentic and waking nightmare states, surrounded by the formidable suction, the formidable tentacular oppression of a kind of civic magic which will soon be seen appearing openly in social behavior.
    Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)
