Quest Chain

Famous quotes containing the words quest and/or chain:

    The tranquility and peace that a scholar needs is something as sweet and exhilarating as love. Unspeakable joys are showered on us by the exertion of our mental faculties; the quest of ideas, and the tranquil contemplation of knowledge; delights indescribable, because purely intellectual and impalpable to our senses.
    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    Oft, in the stilly night, Ere Slumber’s chain has bound me, Fond Memory brings the light Of other days around me.
    Thomas Moore (1779–1852)
