Famous quotes containing the words deep and/or fragment:
“Their very imagination was dead. When you can say that of a man, he has struck bottom, I reckon; there is no lower deep for him.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“The earth is not a mere fragment of dead history, stratum upon stratum like the leaves of a book, to be studied by geologists and antiquaries chiefly, but living poetry like the leaves of a tree, which precede flowers and fruit,—not a fossil earth, but a living earth; compared with whose great central life all animal and vegetable life is merely parasitic.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
