Famous quotes containing the words subtle and/or mind:
“Affected simplicity is a subtle imposture.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Caught by the spectacle my mind turned round
As with the might of waters; an apt type
This label seemed of the utmost we can know,
Both of ourselves and of the universe;
And, on the shape of that unmoving man,
His steadfast face and sightless eyes, I gazed,
As if admonished from another world.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
