Famous quotes containing the words space and/or suits:

    I would have broke mine eye-strings, cracked them, but
    To look upon him, till the diminution
    Of space had pointed him sharp as my needle;
    Nay, followed him till he had melted from
    The smallness of a gnat to air, and then
    Have turned mine eye and wept.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The sole art that suits me is that which, rising from unrest, tends toward serenity.
    André Gide (1869–1951)
