Fixed Base

Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or base:

“But see, the Virgin blest
Hath laid her Babe to rest:
Time is our tedious song should here have ending;
Heaven’s youngest teemed star,
Hath fixed her polished car,
Her sleeping Lord with handmaid lamp attending;
And all about the courtly stable,
Bright-harnessed angels sit in order serviceable.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)

“The base emotions Plato banned
have left a radio-active and not radiant land.”
—Libby Houston (b. 1941)
