Suspension Lift Furi

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)

“If you would lift me you must be on higher ground. If you would liberate me you must be free.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
