Famous quotes containing the words world and/or soul:
“Trust me, my dear Eugenius ... “there are worse occupations in this world than feeling a woman’s pulse.””
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“For books are not absolutely dead things, but do contain a potency of life in them to be as active as that soul was whose progeny they are; nay, they do preserve as in a vial the purest efficacy and extraction of that living intellect that bred them. I know they are as lively, and as vigorously productive, as those fabulous dragon’s teeth; and being sown up and down, may chance to spring up armed men.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
