Famous quotes containing the words bag and/or contained:
“Hitch your wagon to a star. Let us not fag in paltry works which serve our pot and bag alone.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Yet there is a mystery here and it is not one that I understand: without the sting of otherness, of—even—the vicious, without the terrible energies of the underside of health, sanity, sense, then nothing works or can work. I tell you that goodness-what we in our ordinary daylight selves call goodness: the ordinary, the decent—these are nothing without the hidden powers that pour forth continually from their shadow sides. Their hidden aspects contained and tempered.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
