Opening Scene

Famous quotes containing the words opening and/or scene:

    Seeing myself well lost once more, I sighed,
    “Where, where in Heaven am I? But don’t tell me!
    O opening clouds, by opening on me wide.
    Let’s let my heavenly lostness overwhelm me.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    We are such docile creatures, normally, that it takes a virus to jolt us out of life’s routine. A couple of days in a fever bed are, in a sense, health-giving; the change in body temperature, the change in pulse rate, and the change of scene have a restorative effect on the system equal to the hell they raise.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
