Famous quotes containing the words wind and/or energy:
“and yet hands, hands growing out of pictures,
hands crawling out of the walls,
hands that excite oblivion,
like a wind ...”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“In the west, Apollo and Dionysus strive for victory. Apollo makes the boundary lines that are civilization but that lead to convention, constraint, oppression. Dionysus is energy unbound, mad, callous, destructive, wasteful. Apollo is law, history, tradition, the dignity and safety of custom and form. Dionysus is the new, exhilarating but rude, sweeping all away to begin again. Apollo is a tyrant, Dionysus is a vandal.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
