Windows Platform

Famous quotes containing the words windows and/or platform:

    And Saints—to windows run—
    To see the little Tippler
    Leaning against the—Sun—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    It was a favor for which to be forever silent to be shown this vision. The earth beneath had become such a flitting thing of lights and shadows as the clouds had been before. It was not merely veiled to me, but it had passed away like the phantom of a shadow, skias onar, and this new platform was gained. As I had climbed above storm and cloud, so by successive days’ journeys I might reach the region of eternal day, beyond the tapering shadow of the earth.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
