Wide Form

Famous quotes containing the words wide and/or form:

    But the way is wide over stubble and sands,
    Wider and not too wide, as a dish in space
    Is excellent, conforming to demands
    Not yet formulated.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Women stand related to beautiful nature around us, and the enamoured youth mixes their form with moon and stars, with woods and waters, and the pomp of summer. They heal us of awkwardness by their words and looks. We observe their intellectual influence on the most serious student. They refine and clear his mind: teach him to put a pleasing method into what is dry and difficult.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
