Stays

Famous quotes containing the word stays:

“We sail within a vast sphere, ever drifting in uncertainty, driven from end to end. When we think to attach ourselves to any point and to fasten to it, it wavers and leaves us; and if we follow it, it eludes our grasp, slips past us, and vanishes for ever. Nothing stays for us.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

“What stays with you latest and deepest? of curious panics,
Of hard-fought engagements or sieges tremendous what deepest
remains?”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

“Literature is news that STAYS news.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
