Hove Local

Famous quotes containing the words hove and/or local:

    But she rode it out,
    That old rose-house,
    She hove into the teeth of it,
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    To see ourselves as others see us can be eye-opening. To see others as sharing a nature with ourselves is the merest decency. But it is from the far more difficult achievement of seeing ourselves amongst others, as a local example of the forms human life has locally taken, a case among cases, a world among worlds, that the largeness of mind, without which objectivity is self- congratulation and tolerance a sham, comes.
    Clifford Geertz (b. 1926)
