Closed Form

Famous quotes containing the words closed and/or form:

“We are closed in, and the key is turned
On our uncertainty;”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“A true poem is distinguished not so much by a felicitous expression, or any thought it suggests, as by the atmosphere which surrounds it. Most have beauty of outline merely, and are striking as the form and bearing of a stranger; but true verses come toward us indistinctly, as the very breath of all friendliness, and envelop us in their spirit and fragrance.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
