Lowest Distance

Famous quotes containing the words lowest and/or distance:

    You will find the most pronounced hatred of other nations on the lowest cultural levels. There is, though, a level where the hatred disappears completely and where one so to speak stands above the nations and where one experiences fortune or misfortune of a neighboring country as if they had happened to one’s own.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    The distance that the dead have gone
    Does not at first appear—
    Their coming back seems possible
    For many an ardent year.
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
