Final Image Viewed

Famous quotes containing the words final, image and/or viewed:

    “The place became full of a watchful intentness now; for when other things sank brooding to sleep the heath appeared slowly to awake and listen. Every night its Titanic form seemed to await something; but it had waited thus, unmoved, during so many centuries, through the crises of so many things, that it could only be imagined to await one last crisis—the final overthrow.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “Who can wonder that the world is known
    So well by man, since himself is one?
    The same composure in his form is shewed,
    And man’s the little image of the God.”
    —Marcus Manilius (10 B.C.–A.D. 30)

    “Every human being, my dear, must thus be viewed according to what it is good for, for none of us, no not one, is perfect; and were we to love none who had imperfections, this world would be a desert for our love.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
