Famous quotes containing the words total and/or strength:
“Nothing is so perfectly amusing as a total change of ideas.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“The poet needs a ground in popular tradition on which he may work, and which, again, may restrain his art within the due temperance. It holds him to the people, supplies a foundation for his edifice; and, in furnishing so much work done to his hand, leaves him at leisure, and in full strength for the audacities of his imagination.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
