Famous quotes containing the words ultima and/or worlds:
“Civilization is nothing else than the attempt to reduce force to being the ultima ratio.”
—José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
“The soul’s dark cottage, battered and decayed,
Lets in new light through chinks that Time has made:
Stronger by weakness, wiser men become
As they draw near to their eternal home.
Leaving the old, both worlds at once they view
That stand upon the threshold of the new.”
—Edmund Waller (1606–1687)
