Famous quotes containing the words left and/or inverse:

    “It was a time of madness, the sort of mad-hysteria that always presages war. There seems to be nothing left but war—when any population in any sort of a nation gets violently angry, civilization falls down and religion forsakes its hold on the consciences of human kind in such times of public madness.”
    —Rebecca Latimer Felton (1835–1930)

    “Yet time and space are but inverse measures of the force of the soul. The spirit sports with time.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
