Famous quotes containing the words single and/or chord:
“Mankind is not a circle with a single center but an ellipse with two focal points of which facts are one and ideas the other.”

“Love took up the glass of Time, and turned it in his glowing hands;
Every moment, lightly shaken, ran itself in golden sands.
Love took up the harp of Life, and smote on all the chords with
might;
Smote the chord of Self, that, trembling, passed in music out of sight.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
