Bending Wave

Famous quotes containing the words bending and/or wave:

    ‘Tis this desire of bending all things to our own purposes which turns them into confusion and is the chief source of every error in our lives.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    “Justice” was done, and the President of the Immortals, in Æschylean phrase, had ended his sport with Tess. And the d’Urberville knights and dames slept on in their tombs unknowing. The two speechless gazers bent themselves down to the earth, as if in prayer, and remained thus a long time, absolutely motionless: the flag continued to wave silently. As soon as they had strength they arose, joined hands again, and went on.
    The End
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
