Narrowest Point

Famous quotes containing the words narrowest and/or point:

    I can still stand on life’s narrowest footing: but who would I be were I to show you this art. Would you like to see a ropedancer?
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    All our Concord waters have two colors at least; one when viewed at a distance, and another, more proper, close at hand.... Walden is blue at one time and green at another, even from the same point of view. Lying between the earth and the heavens, it partakes of the color of both.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
