Shape Memory

Famous quotes containing the words shape and/or memory:

“And yonder in the gymnasts’ garden thrives
The self-sown, self-begotten shape that gives
Athenian intellect its mastery,
Even the grey-leaved olive-tree
Miracle-bred out of the living stone....”

“The pure serene of memory in one man,—
A ripple widening from a single stone
Winding around the waters of the world.”
