Positive Sense

Famous quotes containing the words positive and/or sense:

    The oaks, how subtle and marine!
    Bearded, and all the layered light
    Above them swims; and thus the scene,
    Recessed, awaits the positive night.
    Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)

    The smaller the person, the less we worry about his dignity. Sometimes we even find the idea a little ludicrous as if smallness and inexperience were incompatible with anything so majestic as human dignity....Yet children have a great sense of their own dignity. They couldn’t define what it is but they know when it has been violated.
    Leontine Young (20th century)
