Juxtaposition Quotations
I have suffered a great deal from writers who have quoted this or that sentence of mine either out of its context or in juxtaposition to some incongruous matter which quite distorted my meaning, or destroyed it altogether.

Susan Sontag I'm getting a little bored by the juxtaposition of American and other cinema. I no longer think this division is as true as it might have been in the 1980s, or the early part of the 90s. Wim Wenders I like the construction of sentences and the juxtaposition of words-not just how they sound or what they mean, but even what they look like. Don DeLillo |
