Shadow Hearts

Famous quotes containing the words shadow and/or hearts:

    Erasmus was the light of his century; others were its strength: he lighted the way; others knew how to walk on it while he himself remained in the shadow as the source of light always does. But he who points the way into a new era is no less worthy of veneration than he who is the first to enter it; those who work invisibly have also accomplished a feat.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    Absence, hear my protestation
    Against thy strength
    Distance and length,
    Do what thou canst for alteration:
    For hearts of truest metal
    Absence doth join, and Time doth settle.
    John Hoskyns (1566–1638)
