Closest Approach

Famous quotes containing the words closest and/or approach:

    The universe is not rough-hewn, but perfect in its details. Nature will bear the closest inspection; she invites us to lay our eye level with the smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain. She has no interstices; every part is full of life.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect.
