Famous quotes containing the words famous and/or chinese:

    “Many famous feet have trod
    Sublunary paths, and famous hands have weighed
    The strength they have against the strength they need;
    And famous lips interrogated God
    Concerning franchise in eternity....”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “Only by the form, the pattern,
    Can words or music reach
    The stillness, as a Chinese jar still
    Moves perpetually in its stillness.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
