Famous quotes containing the words entire and/or breast:
“Denotation by means of sounds and markings is a remarkable abstraction. Three letters designate God for me; several lines a million things. How easy becomes the manipulation of the universe here, how evident the concentration of the intellectual world! Language is the dynamics of the spiritual realm. One word of command moves armies; the word liberty entire nations.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (17721801)
“This is the last leaf
in the years book.
Now I come to grief
as the earths breast goes hard and mean
and hay is packed for the manger.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
