Famous quotes containing the word finds:

    My anger thought you too ignoble for my love, and close examination finds you too magnificent, and only equals are joined together smoothly.

    Converse: Don’t they say that this is where everybody finds out who they are? Huh?
    Hicks: Yeah. What a bummer for the gooks.

    There’s a point of poverty at which the spirit isn’t with the body all the time. It finds the body really too unbearable. So it’s almost as if you were talking to the soul itself. And a soul’s not properly responsible.
    Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)
