Obliquely Quotations
It is not always by plugging away at a difficulty and sticking to it that one overcomes it; often it is by working on the one next to it. Some things and some people have to be approached obliquely, at an angle.
Andre Gide
Painting will have to deal more fully and less obliquely with life and nature's phenomena before it can again become great.
Edward Hopper
Of course, sometimes when you write personally, you are also writing about society, obliquely reflecting topical issues, but not in a way that people would expect you to or in the way that someone trying to make a point would.
Suzanne Vega
Talk ought always to run obliquely, not nose to nose with no chance of mental escape.
