Famous quotes containing the words single and/or slit:
“Time alone reveals the just man; but you might discern a bad man in a single day.”
—Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
“For, brother, know that this is art, and you
With a cold incautious sorrow stricken dumb,
Have your own vanishing slit of light let through,
Passionate as winter, where only a few may come:
Not idiots in the street find out the lees
In the last drink of dying Socrates.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
