Famous quotes containing the words isolated and/or graves:
“When needs and means become abstract in quality, abstraction is also a character of the reciprocal relation of individuals to one another. This abstract character, universality, is the character of being recognized and is the moment which makes concrete, i.e. social, the isolated and abstract needs and their ways and means of satisfaction.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“She tells her love while half asleep
In the dark hours,
With half-words whispered low:”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
