Stationary Points

Famous quotes containing the words stationary and/or points:

“It is the dissenter, the theorist, the aspirant, who is quitting this ancient domain to embark on seas of adventure, who engages our interest.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Type of the wise, who soar, but never roam—
True to the kindred points of Heaven and Home!”
