Famous quotes containing the words reaction and/or rail:
“Sole and self-commanded works,
Fears not undermining days,
Grows by decays,
And, by the famous might that lurks
In reaction and recoil,
Makes flames to freeze, and ice to boil.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“For this is the mark of a wise and upright man, not to rail against the gods in misfortune.”
