Famous quotes containing the words pulse and/or width:
“While our pulse beats and we feel emotion, let us put off the business. Things will truly seem different to us when we have quieted and cooled down. It is passion that is in command at first, it is passion that speaks, it is not we ourselves.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Newly stumbling to and fro
All they find, outside the fold,
Is a wretched width of cold.”
