Left Open

Famous quotes containing the words left and/or open:

“Slight are her arms, yet they have bound me straitly
And left me cloaked as with a gauze of ther;
As with sweet leaves; as with subtle clearness.”

“For it is not possible to join serpentine wisdom with columbine innocency, except men know exactly all the conditions of the serpent: his baseness and going upon his belly, his volubility and lubricity, his envy and sting, and the rest; that is, all forms and natures of evil: for without this, virtue lieth open and unfenced.”
—Francis Bacon (1561–1626)
