Famous quotes containing the words shift and/or map:

    ““Circumstantial evidence is a very tricky thing,” answered Holmes thoughtfully. “It may seem to point very straight to one thing, but if you shift your own point of view a little, you may find it pointing in an equally uncompromising manner to something entirely different.””
    —Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)

    “Unless, governor, teacher inspector, visitor,
    This map becomes their window and these windows
    That open on their lives like crouching tombs
    Break, O break open,”
    —Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
