Famous quotes containing the word contemplate:
“The seashore is a sort of neutral ground, a most advantageous point from which to contemplate this world. It is even a trivial place. The waves forever rolling to the land are too far-traveled and untamable to be familiar. Creeping along the endless beach amid the sun-squall and the foam, it occurs to us that we, too, are the product of sea-slime.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“To contemplate is to look at shadows.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“How great seems human progress when we consider where it began, and how insignificant, when we contemplate the goals for which it strives.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
