Famous quotes containing the words total and/or strength:
“only total expression
expresses hiding: I’ll have to say everything
to take on the roundness and withdrawal of the deep dark:
less than total is a bucketful of radiant toys.”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
“We have not strength enough to follow our reason so far as it would carry us.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
