Glass Attracts

Famous quotes containing the words glass and/or attracts:

“I must sojourn once to the ballot-box before I die. I hear the ballot-box is a beautiful glass globe, so you can see all the votes as they go in. Now, the first time I vote I’ll see if the woman’s vote looks any different from the rest—if it makes any stir or commotion. If it don’t inside, it need not outside.”
—Sojourner Truth (c. 1797–1883)

“One mustn’t look at the abyss, because there is at the bottom an inexpressible charm which attracts us.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
