Charged States

Famous quotes containing the words charged and/or states:

    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)

    Life is a series of sensations connected to different states of consciousness.
    Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
