Famous quotes containing the words water, level and/or route:
“Thales claimed that everything was water. He also put wine into water to sterilize it. Did he really believe he was putting water into water to sterilize it? Parmenides, like most Greeks, knew that wine was not water. But while lifting a glass of wine to his lips, he denied that motion was possible. Did he really believe that the glass was not moving when he lifted it?”
—Avrum Stroll (b. 1921)
“Your mock saint who stands in a niche is not a woman if she have not suffered, still less a woman if she have not sinned. Fall at the feet of your idol as you wish, but drag her down to your level after thatthe only level she should ever reach, that of your heart.”
—Emmuska, Baroness Orczy (18651947)
“A Route of Evanescence
With a revolving Wheel”
—Emily Dickinson (18301886)
