Famous quotes containing the words verbal, roots and/or beginning:
“Language fails not because thought fails, but because no verbal symbols can do justice to the fullness and richness of thought. If we are to continue talking about data in any other sense than as reflective distinctions, the original datum is always such a qualitative whole.”

“Now fades the lasts long streak of snow,
Now burgeons every maze of quick
About the flowering squares, and thick
By ashen roots the violets blow.”
—Alfred Tennyson (18091892)
“Man was Cadavers masker, the harnessing mantle,
Windily master of man was the rotten fathom,
My ghost in his metal neptune
Forged in mans mineral.
This was the god of beginning in the intricate seawhirl,
And my images roared and rose on heavens hill.”
—Dylan Thomas (19141953)
