Mystical

Famous quotes containing the word mystical:

    When I, sitting, heard the astronomer, where he lectured with such applause in the lecture room,
    How soon, unaccountable, I became tired and sick;
    Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself,
    In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
    Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    Come, heart, where hill is heaped upon hill:
    For there the mystical brotherhood
    Of sun and moon and hollow and wood
    And river and stream work out their will....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Gravity is a kind of mystical behavior in the body, invented to conceal the defects of the mind.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
