Moving Parallel

Famous quotes containing the words moving and/or parallel:

    “Yet nightly pitch my moving tent,
    A day’s march nearer home.”
    —James Montgomery (1771–1854)

    “One writes of scars healed, a loose parallel to the pathology of the skin, but there is no such thing in the life of an individual. There are open wounds, shrunk sometimes to the size of a pin-prick but wounds still. The marks of suffering are more comparable to the loss of a finger, or the sight of an eye. We may not miss them, either, for one minute in a year, but if we should there is nothing to be done about it.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
