Wide Streets

Famous quotes containing the words wide and/or streets:

    Fly-catchers of the moon,
    Our hands are blenched, our fingers seem
    But slender needles of bone;
    Blenched by that malicious dream
    They are spread wide that each
    May rend what comes in reach.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The revolution as we call it is not necessarily an uprising in the streets or the old business of seizing power. Though the Left has always imagined it was. The revolution is change. Not merely rearrangement, but a deep emotional type of transformation that must also take place inside us. It’s a better way to live.
    Kate Millett (b. 1934)
