Home Console

Famous quotes containing the words home and/or console:

    Wild air, world-mothering air,
    Nestling me everywhere,
    That each eyelash or hair
    Girdles; goes home betwixt
    The fleeciest, frailest-fixed
    Snowflake; that’s fairly mixed
    With, riddles, and is rife
    In every least thing’s life.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    The vanity of the sciences. Physical science will not console me for the ignorance of morality in the time of affliction. But the science of ethics will always console me for the ignorance of the physical sciences.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
