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