Growth Stage

Famous quotes containing the words growth and/or stage:

The teeming gulf—the sleepers and the shadows!
The past! the infinite greatness of the past!
For what is the present after all but a growth out of the past?”

“I must ... warn my readers that my attacks are directed against themselves, not against my stage figures.”
