Thin Lenses

Famous quotes containing the words thin and/or lenses:

    Romeo. Peace, peace, Mercutio, peace!
    Thou talk’st of nothing.
    Mercutio. True, I talk of dreams,
    Which are the children of an idle brain,
    Begot of nothing but vain fantasy,
    Which is as thin of substance as the air,
    And more inconstant than the wind.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Life is a train of moods like a string of beads, and, as we pass through them, they prove to be many-colored lenses which paint the world their own hue, and each shows only what lies in its focus.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
