Body Experience

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or experience:

“With my whole body I taste these peaches,
I touch them and smell them. Who speaks?
I absorb them as the Angevine
Absorbs Anjou. I see them as a lover sees,
As a young lover sees the first buds of spring
And as the black Spaniard plays his guitar.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“Is it not rather what we expect in men, that they should have numerous strands of experience lying side by side and never compare them with each other?”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
