Exercise Held

Famous quotes containing the words exercise and/or held:

    The exercise of letters is sometimes linked to the ambition to contruct an absolute book, a book of books that includes the others like a Platonic archetype, an object whose virtues are not diminished by the passage of time.
    Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    Lacustrine man had never been assailed
    By such long-rolling opulent cataracts,
    Unless Racine or Bossuet held the like.
