Channel Length

Famous quotes containing the words channel and/or length:

    This is what the Church is said to want, not party men, but sensible, temperate, sober, well-judging persons, to guide it through the channel of no-meaning, between the Scylla and Charybdis of Aye and No.
    Cardinal John Henry Newman (1801–1890)

    The light that was shadowed then
    Was seen to be our lives,
    Everything about us that love might wish to examine,
    Then put away for a certain length of time, until
    The whole is to be reviewed, and we turned
    Toward each other, to each other.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
