Fixed Base

Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or base:

    ...stare into the lake of sunset as it runs
    boiling, over the west past all control
    rolling and swamps the heartbeat and repeats
    sea beyond sea after unbearable suns;
    think: poems fixed this landscape: Blake, Donne, Keats.
    Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    Time, force, and death
    Do to this body what extremes you can,
    But the strong base and building of my love
    Is as the very centre of the earth,
    Drawing all things to it.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
