Volume Position

Famous quotes containing the words volume and/or position:

    “And all the great traditions of the Past
    They saw reflected in the coming time.

    And thus forever with reverted look
    The mystic volume of the world they read,
    Spelling it backward, like a Hebrew book,
    Till life became a Legend of the Dead.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    “To be free in an age like ours, one must be in a position of authority. That in itself would be enough to make me ambitious.”
