Open Sets

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or sets:

    Why the jailer does not leave open his prison doors,—why the judge does not dismiss his case,—why the preacher does not dismiss his congregation! It is because they do not obey the hint God gives them, nor accept the pardon which he freely offers to all.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Music sets up ladders,
    it makes us invisible,
    it sets us apart,
    it lets us escape;
    but from the visible
    there is no escape.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
