Lowest Distance

Famous quotes containing the words lowest and/or distance:

    Perhaps it is the lowest of the qualities of an orator, but it is, on so many occasions, of chief importance,—a certain robust and radiant physical health; or—shall I say?—great volumes of animal heat.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    And then he heard some old forgotten talk
    At a short distance like a hundred miles
    Filling the air with its secrecy,
    And was afraid of all the living air....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
