Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or worlds:
“Society cannot do without cultivated men. As soon as the first wants are satisfied, the higher wants become imperative.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Say first, of God above, or Man below,
What can we reason, but from what we know?
Of Man what see we, but his station here,
From which to reason, or to which refer?
Thro’ worlds unnumber’d tho’ the God be known,
‘Tis ours to trace him only in our own.
”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
