Deeper

Famous quotes containing the word deeper:

“The butterfly’s attractiveness derives not only from colors and symmetry: deeper motives contribute to it. We would not think them so beautiful if they did not fly, or if they flew straight and briskly like bees, or if they stung, or above all if they did not enact the perturbing mystery of metamorphosis: the latter assumes in our eyes the value of a badly decoded message, a symbol, a sign.”
—Primo Levi (1919–1987)

“The Cross, the Cross
Goes deeper in than we know,
Deeper into life;
Right into the marrow
And through the bone.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)

“Building worlds is not enough for the deeper urging mind;
but a loving heart sates the striving spirit.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
