Hidden States

Famous quotes containing the words hidden and/or states:

    Look
    There he is now, look:
    There is no interrogation in his eyes
    Or in the hands, quiet over the horse’s neck,
    And the eyes watchful, waiting, perceiving indifferent.
    O hidden under the dover’s wing, hidden in the turtle’s breast....
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    If I be false, or swerve a hair from truth,
    When time is old and hath forgot itself,
    When waterdrops have worn the stones of Troy,
    And blind oblivion swallowed cities up,
    And mighty states characterless are grated
    To dusty nothing, yet let memory
    From false to false among false maids in love
    Upbraid my falsehood.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
