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)

    The grand principles of virtue and honor, however they may be distorted by arbitrary codes, are the same the world over: and where these principles are concerned, the right or wrong of any action appears the same to the uncultivated as to the enlightened mind.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
