Highly Polished

Famous quotes containing the words highly and/or polished:

“William James once said: “Progress is a terrible thing.” It is more than that: it is also a highly ambiguous notion. For who knows but that a little further on the way a bridge may not have collapsed or a crevice split the earth?”

“O polished perturbation! golden care!
That keep’st the ports of slumber open wide
To many a watchful night.”
