Close Sets

Famous quotes containing the words close and/or sets:

“My anger thought you too ignoble for my love, and close examination finds you too magnificent, and only equals are joined together smoothly.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

“To me this world is all one continued vision of fancy or imagination, and I feel flattered when I am told so. What is it sets Homer, Virgil and Milton in so high a rank of art? Why is Bible more entertaining and instructive than any other book? Is it not because they are addressed to the imagination, which is spiritual sensation, and but mediately to the understanding or reason?”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
