Higher States

Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or states:

“The imagination, give it the least license, dives deeper and soars higher than Nature goes.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“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)
