Elevated Closed April

Famous quotes containing the words elevated, closed and/or april:

    The more elevated a culture, the richer its language. The number of words and their combinations depends directly on a sum of conceptions and ideas; without the latter there can be no understandings, no definitions, and, as a result, no reason to enrich a language.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    On a flat road runs the well-trained runner,
    He is lean and sinewy with muscular legs,
    He is thinly clothed, he leans forward as he runs,
    With lightly closed fists and arms partially raised.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Thou art thy mother’s glass, and she in thee
    Calls back the lovely April of her prime.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
