Arbitrarily Close

Famous quotes containing the words arbitrarily and/or close:

“Good poetry could not have been otherwise written than it is. The first time you hear it, it sounds rather as if copied out of some invisible tablet in the Eternal mind than as if arbitrarily composed by the poet.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“The nonsense that charms is close to sense.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
