Hidden Reasons

Famous quotes containing the words hidden and/or reasons:

“Lap me in soft Lydian airs,
Married to immortal verse,
Such as the meeting soul may pierce
In notes with many a winding bout
Of linked sweetness long drawn out,
With wanton heed and giddy cunning,
The melting voice through mazes running,
Untwisting all the chains that tie
The hidden soul of harmony;”
—John Milton (1608–1674)

“There may be other reasons for a man’s not speaking in publick than want of resolution: he may have nothing to say.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
