Proper Ideal

Famous quotes containing the words proper and/or ideal:

“It’s precisely the disappointing stories, which have no proper ending and therefore no proper meaning, that sound true to life.”

“Some day the soft Ideal that we wooed
Confronts us fiercely, foe-beset, pursued,
And cries reproachful: “Was it then my praise,
And not myself was loved? Prove now thy truth;
I claim of thee the promise of thy youth.””
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
