Famous quotes containing the words increasing and/or addresses:

“I wonder whether mankind could not get along without all these names, which keep increasing every day, and hour, and moment; till at the last the very air will be full of them; and even in a great plain, men will be breathing each other’s breath, owing to the vast multitude of words they use, that consume all the air, just as lamp-burners do gas.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)

“The question “From where does the poet get it?” addresses only the what, nobody learns anything about the how when asking that question.”
