Quotes About Disparates

Language operates between literal and metaphorical signification. The power of a word lies in the very inadequacy of the context it is placed, in the unresolved or partially resolved tension of disparates. A word fixed or a statement isolated without any decorative or 'cubist' visual format, becomes a perception of similarity in dissimilars—in short a paradox.
~ Robert Smithson
Nesta época de esplendor da ópera, o público exige, principalmente, a excelência da voz e aceita todos os disparates, até mesmo os que contrariem a lógica mais elementar.
~ Rubem Fonseca
