Apollo Creed

Famous quotes containing the words apollo and/or creed:

    blue bead on the wick,
    there’s that in me that
    burns and chills, blackening
    my heart with its soot,
    I think sometimes not Apollo heard me
    but a different god.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    The new statement will comprise the skepticisms, as well as the faiths of society, and out of unbeliefs a creed shall be formed. For, skepticisms are not gratuitous or lawless, but are limitations of the affirmative statement, and the new philosophy must take them in, and make affirmations outside of them, just as much as must include the oldest beliefs.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
