Ultimate Length

Famous quotes containing the words ultimate and/or length:

    “One perceives that again and again she has destroyed her life when it was forming into shapes of happiness because of her loyalty to the early misery, her conviction that that has the sanction of ultimate reality, and that beside it all other things are trivial.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)

    “The light that was shadowed then
    Was seen to be our lives,
    Everything about us that love might wish to examine,
    Then put away for a certain length of time, until
    The whole is to be reviewed, and we turned
    Toward each other, to each other.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
