Mark Stack Control

Famous quotes containing the words mark, stack and/or control:

    Only a still place
    and perhaps some outer horror
    some hideousness to stamp beauty,
    a mark no changing it now
    on our hearts.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    What is a farm but a mute gospel? The chaff and the wheat, weeds and plants, blight, rain, insects, sun—it is a sacred emblem from the first furrow of spring to the last stack which the snow of winter overtakes in the fields.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    We human beings do have some genuine freedom of choice and therefore some effective control over our own destinies. I am not a determinist. But I also believe that the decisive choice is seldom the latest choice in the series. More often than not, it will turn out to be some choice made relatively far back in the past.
    —A.J. (Arnold Joseph)
