Bare Action

Famous quotes containing the words bare and/or action:

    “Generations have trod, have trod, have trod;
    And all is seared with trade; bleared, smeared with toil;
    And wears man’s smudge and shares man’s smell: the soil
    Is bare now, nor can foot feel, being shod.”
    —Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    “The action of the soul is oftener in that which is felt and left unsaid, than in that which is said in any conversation. It broods over every society, and they unconsciously seek for it in each other.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
