Charged Form

Famous quotes containing the words charged and/or form:

    God, who gave to him the lyre,
    Of all mortals the desire,
    For all breathing men’s behoof,
    Straitly charged him, “Sit aloof;”
    Annexed a warning, poets say,
    To the bright premium,—
    Ever, when twain together play,
    Shall the harp be dumb.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    You may try but you can never imagine what it is to have a man’s form of genius in you, and to suffer the slavery of being a girl.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
