Famous quotes containing the words bearing and/or number:
“As if, as if, as if the disparate halves
Of things were waiting in a betrothal known
To none, awaiting espousal to the sound
Of right joining, a music of ideas, the burning
And breeding and bearing birth of harmony,
The final relation, the marriage of the rest.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
“After a certain number of years our faces become our biographies. We get to be responsible for our faces.”
