Infinitely Close

Famous quotes containing the words infinitely and/or close:

“Literary gentlemen, editors, and critics think that they know how to write, because they have studied grammar and rhetoric; but they are egregiously mistaken.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“We have scorched the snake, not killed it:
She’ll close and be herself.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
