Gap Chasm

Famous quotes containing the words gap and/or chasm:

    The gap between the committed and the indifferent is a Sahara whose faint trails, followed by the mind’s eye only, fade out in sand.
    Nadine Gordimer (b. 1923)

    But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted
    Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!
    A savage place! as holy and enchanted
    As e’er beneath a waning moon was haunted
    By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
