Augmented Limb Leads

Famous quotes containing the words augmented, limb and/or leads:

    Another success is the post-office, with its educating energy augmented by cheapness and guarded by a certain religious sentiment in mankind; so that the power of a wafer or a drop of wax or gluten to guard a letter, as it flies over sea over land and comes to its address as if a battalion of artillery brought it, I look upon as a fine meter of civilization.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    should some limb of the devil
    Destroy the view by cutting down an ash
    That shades the road, or setting up a cottage
    Planned in a government office, shorten his life,
    Manacle his soul upon the Red Sea bottom.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    My manner is the footnote to your immoral
    Beauty, that leads me with a magic hair
    Up the spun highway of a vanishing hill
    To Words....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
