Famous quotes containing the word continuous:

    “I can never get people to understand that poetry is the expression of excited passion, and that there is no such thing as a life of passion any more than a continuous earthquake, or an eternal fever. Besides, who would ever shave themselves in such a state?”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
