Native Burmese Word

Famous quotes containing the words native and/or word:

    In excited conversation we have glimpses of the universe, hints of power native to the soul, far-darting lights and shadows of an Andes landscape, such as we can hardly attain in lone meditation. Here are oracles sometimes profusely given, to which the memory goes back in barren hours.

    The difference between the almost right word and the right word is the difference between the lightning- bug and the lightning.
