Companions Pure

Famous quotes containing the words companions and/or pure:

    Dear fellow-artist, why so free
    With every sort of company,
    With every Jack and Jill?
    Choose your companions from the best;
    Who draws a bucket with the rest
    Soon topples down the hill.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    We may climb into the thin and cold realm of pure geometry and lifeless science, or sink into that of sensation. Between these extremes is the equator of life, of thought, or spirit, or poetry,—a narrow belt.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
