Famous quotes containing the words distance and/or learning:
“I see nobody on the road, said Alice.
I only wish I had such eyes, the King remarked in a fretful tone. To be able to see Nobody! And at that distance too! Why, its as much as I can do to see real people, by this light!”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
“Go, throng each others drawing-rooms,
Ye idols of a petty clique:
Strut your brief hour in borrowed plumes,
And make your penny-trumpets squeak:
Deck your dull talk with pilfered shreds
Of learning from a noble time,
And oil each others little heads
With mutual Flatterys golden slime.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
