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)

    “At dawn of morn, and close of even,
    To lift your heart and hands to Heaven.
    In double beauty say your prayer:
    Our Father first, then Notre Pere.
    And, dearest child, along the day,
    In every thing you do and say,
    Obey and please my lord and lady,
    So God shall love and angels aid ye.”
    —Matthew Prior (1664–1721)
