Mirrored Volumes

Famous quotes containing the words mirrored and/or volumes:

“The older woman’s love is not love of herself, nor of herself mirrored in a lover’s eyes, nor is it corrupted by need. It is a feeling of tenderness so still and deep and warm that it gilds every grassblade and blesses every fly. It includes the ones who have a claim on it, and a great deal else besides. I wouldn’t have missed it for the world.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

“And let a scholar all earth’s volumes carry,
He will be but a walking dictionary:
A mere articulate clock.”
—George Chapman (1559–1634)
