Remained Close

Famous quotes containing the words remained and/or close:

    It is the individual only who is timeless. Societies, cultures, and civilizations—past and present—are often incomprehensible to outsiders, but the individual’s hungers, anxieties, dreams, and preoccupations have remained unchanged through the millennia.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “We, we children, why our lives are circumscribed, circumferential;
    Close, too close to the center....”
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
