Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or base:

    “The whole point about the true unconscious is that it is all the time moving forward, beyond the range of its own fixed laws or habits. It is no good trying to superimpose an ideal nature upon the unconscious.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “Study is like the heaven’s glorious sun,
    That will not be deep searched with saucy looks;
    Small have continual plodders ever won,
    Save base authority from others’ books.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
