Famous quotes containing the words suspension and/or lift:
“If the oarsmen of a fast-moving ship suddenly cease to row, the suspension of the driving force of the oars doesn’t prevent the vessel from continuing to move on its course. And with a speech it is much the same. After he has finished reciting the document, the speaker will still be able to maintain the same tone without a break, borrowing its momentum and impulse from the passage he has just read out.”
—Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C)
“I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my
help.”
—Bible: Hebrew Psalm CXXI (l. CXXI, 1)
