Wave Society

Famous quotes containing the words wave and/or society:

    I hear
    the tide turning. Last
    eager wave over-
    taken and pulled back
    by first wave of the ebb.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary.
    Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)
