Deeper

Famous quotes containing the word deeper:

    ... deeper
    and deeper into Imagination’s
    holy forest, as travelers
    followed the Zohar’s dusty
    shimmering roads ...
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    His life itself passes deeper in nature than the studies of the naturalist penetrate; himself a subject for the naturalist. The latter raises the moss and bark gently with his knife in search of insects; the former lays open logs to their core with his axe, and moss and bark fly far and wide. He gets his living by barking trees. Such a man has some right to fish, and I love to see nature carried out in him.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Deeper and deeper into Time’s endless tunnel, does the winged soul, like a night-hawk, wend her wild way; and finds eternities before and behind; and her last limit is her everlasting beginning.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
