Famous quotes containing the words line and/or openings:
“Today, the notion of progress in a single line without goal or limit seems perhaps the most parochial notion of a very parochial century.”
—Lewis Mumford (18951990)
“There are a thousand unnoticed openings ... which let a penetrating eye at once into a mans soul; and I maintain ... that a man of sense does not lay down his hat in coming into a room,or take it up in going out of it, but something escapes, which discovers him.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
