Depth Distance

Famous quotes containing the words depth and/or distance:

“You are now
In London, that great sea, whose ebb and flow
At once is deaf and loud, and on the shore
Vomits its wrecks, and still howls on for more.
Yet in its depth what treasures!”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

“Letters to absence can a voice impart,
And lend a tongue when distance gags the heart.”
