Famous quotes containing the words verb and/or forms:
“The word is the Verb, and the Verb is God.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“There are these sudden mobs of men,
These sudden clouds of faces and arms,
An immense suppression, freed,
These voices crying without knowing for what,
Except to be happy, without knowing how,
Imposing forms they cannot describe,
Requiring order beyond their speech.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
