Sides

Famous quotes containing the word sides:

    A voice I heard—and near I yede—
    In great dolour complaining tho:
    ‘See, dear soul, my sides bleed,
    Quia amore langueo.

    Playing alone, I found the wall.
    One side was gray, the other an indelible gray.
    The two sides were separated by a third,
    Or spirit wall, a coarser gray.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    A mountain chain determines many things for the statesman and philosopher. The improvements of civilization rather creep along its sides than cross its summit. How often is it a barrier to prejudice and fanaticism!
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
