Times Higher

Famous quotes containing the words times and/or higher:

    “Tell me how many beads there are
    In a silver chain
    Of evening rain,
    Unravelled from the tumbling main,
    And threading the eye of a yellow star:—
    So many times do I love again.”
    —Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)

    “Many, no doubt, are well disposed, but sluggish by constitution and habit, and they cannot conceive of a man who is actuated by higher motives than they are. Accordingly they pronounce this man insane, for they know that they could never act as he does, as long as they are themselves.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
