Long Roots

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or roots:

    The sage as astronomer.—As long as you still experience the stars as something “above you,” you still lack viewpoint of knowledge.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Sprung from the West,
    He drank the valorous youth of a new world.
    The strength of virgin forests braced his mind,
    The hush of spacious prairies stilled his soul.
    His words were oaks in acorns; and his thoughts
    Were roots that firmly gript the granite truth.
    Edwin Markham (1852–1940)
