Bare Action

Famous quotes containing the words bare and/or action:

    Out of the first warmth of spring,
    And out of the shine of the menlocks,
    Among the bare and crooked trees,
    She found a helping from the cold,
    Like a meaning in nothingness....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    He who has been impoverished for a long time ... who has long stood before the door of the mighty in darkness and begged for alms, has filled his heart with bitterness so that it resembles a sponge full of gall; he knows about the injustice and folly of all human action and sometimes his lips tremble with rage and a stifled scream.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)
