Addresses

Famous quotes containing the word addresses:

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The pleasures and the cares of the luckiest ambition, even of limitless power, are nothing next to the intimate happiness that tenderness and love give. I am man before being a prince, and when I have the good fortune to be in love, my mistress addresses a man and not a prince.
    Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    The question “From where does the poet get it?” addresses only the what, nobody learns anything about the how when asking that question.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
