Famous quotes containing the words perfect and/or squared:
“DEAR FRIEND: ——
If I was sure of thee, sure of thy capacity, sure to match my mood with thine, I should never think again of trifles in relation to thy comings and goings. I am not very wise; my moods are quite attainable; and I respect thy genius; it is to me unfathomed; yet dare I not presume in thee a perfect intelligence of me, and so thou art to me a delicious torment. Thine ever, or never.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Dreams are toys.
Yet for this once, yea, superstitiously,
I will be squared by this.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
