Famous quotes containing the words sequence and/or begins:
“Reminiscences, even extensive ones, do not always amount to an autobiography.... For autobiography has to do with time, with sequence and what makes up the continuous flow of life. Here, I am talking of a space, of moments and discontinuities. For even if months and years appear here, it is in the form they have in the moment of recollection. This strange formit may be called fleeting or eternalis in neither case the stuff that life is made of.”
—Walter Benjamin (18921940)
“It is all right for the lion and the lamb to lie down together if they are both asleep, but if one of them begins to get active it is dangerous.”
—Crystal Eastman (18811928)
