Drawing Hand

Famous quotes containing the words drawing and/or hand:

    While it may not heighten our sympathy, wit widens our horizons by its flashes, revealing remote hidden affiliations and drawing laughter from far afield; humor, in contrast, strikes up fellow feeling, and though it does not leap so much across time and space, enriches our insight into the universal in familiar things, lending it a local habitation and a name.
    —Marie Collins Swabey. Comic Laughter, ch. 5, Yale University Press (1961)

    The god who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
