Dashed Lines

Famous quotes containing the words dashed and/or lines:

    The river, right, tumbled into a cove;
    But the map dashed the road along the stream
    And we dotted man’s fishiest enthymeme
    With jellied feet upon understanding love
    Of what eyes see not, that nourishes the will:
    We were fishers, weren’t we?
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    GOETHE, raised o’er joy and strife,
    Drew the firm lines of Fate and Life,
    And brought Olympian wisdom down
    To court and mar, to gown and town,
    Stooping, his finger wrote in clay
    The open secret of to-day.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
