Famous quotes containing the words phase, change and/or imposed:
“This is certainly not the place for a discourse about what festivals are for. Discussions on this theme were plentiful during that phase of preparation and on the whole were fruitless. My experience is that discussion is fruitless. What sets forth and demonstrates is the sight of events in action, is living through these events and understanding them.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
“Thus change the forms of being. Thus arise
Races of living things, glorious in strength,
And perish, as the quickening breath of God
Fills them, or is withdrawn.”
—William Cullen Bryant (17941878)
“Twas Age imposed on poems
Their gather-roses burden
To warn against the danger
That overtakes lovers
From being overflooded
With happiness should have it
And yet not know they have it.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
