Flowing Wells

Famous quotes containing the words flowing and/or wells:

“It is what we imagine knowledge to be:
dark, salt, clear, moving, utterly free,
drawn from the cold hard mouth
of the world, derived from the rocky breasts
forever, flowing and drawn, and since
our knowledge is historical, flowing, and flown.”
—Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

“Life is fountain of joy; but where the rabble also gather to drink, all wells are poisoned.”
