Simple Roots

Famous quotes containing the words simple and/or roots:

    The thought of our past years in me doth breed
    Perpetual benediction: not indeed
    For that which is most worthy to be blest—
    Delight and liberty, the simple creed
    Of Childhood, whether busy or at rest,
    With new-fledged hope still fluttering in his breast:—
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    A poet must be a psychologist, but a secret one: he should know and feel the roots of phenomena but present only the phenomena themselves—in full bloom or as they fade away.
    Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
