Liberty Bell/becoming A Symbol 1847%e2%80%931865

Famous quotes containing the words liberty, bell and/or symbol:

    Our religion ... is itself profoundly sad—a religion of universal anguish, and one which, because of its very catholicity, grants full liberty to the individual and asks no better than to be celebrated in each man’s own language—so long as he knows anguish and is a painter.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    The one who should remove the bell is the one who hung it up.
    Chinese proverb.

    The horse, the horse! The symbol of surging potency and power of movement, of action, in man.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
