Famous quotes containing the words hole, event and/or horizon:
“The more supple vagabond, too, is sure to appear on the least rumor of such a gathering, and the next day to disappear, and go into his hole like the seventeen-year locust, in an ever-shabby coat, though finer than the farmers best, yet never dressed.... He especially is the creature of the occasion. He empties both his pockets and his character into the stream, and swims in such a day. He dearly loves the social slush. There is no reserve of soberness in him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“An event has happened, upon which it is difficult to speak, and impossible to be silent.”
—Edmund Burke (17291797)
“The horizon is more than a convention of landscape painting, less than truth.”
