Plain Leaf

Famous quotes containing the words plain and/or leaf:

    One would appear ridiculous who would say, that it is only probable the sun will rise to-morrow, or that all men must die; though it is plain we have no further assurance of these facts than what experience affords us.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    I will not speak of the famous beauty of dead women:
    I will say the shape of a leaf lay once on your hair.
    Till the world ends and the eyes are out and the mouths broken,
    Look! It is there!
    Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)
