Ascending Runs

Famous quotes containing the words ascending and/or runs:

    The true thrift is always to spend on the higher plane; to invest and invest, with keener avarice, that he may spend in spiritual creation, and not in augmenting animal existence. Nor is the man enriched, in repeating the old experiments of animal sensation; nor unless through new powers and ascending pleasures he knows himself by the actual experience of higher good to be already on the way to the highest.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    She runs so fearfully quick. You might as well try to catch a Bandersnatch!
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
