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)

    “From a purely external point of view there is no will; and to find will in any phenomenon requires a certain empathy; we observe a man’s actions and place ourselves partly but not wholly in his position; or we act, and place ourselves partly in the position of an outsider.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
