Famous quotes containing the words diminished and/or scale:
“The bird would cease and be as other birds
But that he knows in singing not to sing.
The question that he frames in all but words
Is what to make of a diminished thing.”

To the reformer or reformed.
And yet conversion has its place
Not halfway down the scale of grace.”
