Resting Place

Famous quotes containing the words resting and/or place:

    I am constant as the northern star,
    Of whose true-fixed and resting quality
    There is no fellow in the firmament.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In a language known to us, we have substituted the opacity of the sounds with the transparence of the ideas. But a language we do not know is a closed place in which the one we love can deceive us, making us, locked outside and convulsed in our impotence, incapable of seeing or preventing anything.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
