Imperfection/note

Famous quotes containing the words imperfection and/or note:

    “No imperfection in budded mountain,
    Valleys breathe, heaven and earth move together,
    daisies push inches of yellow air, vegetables tremble,
    green atoms shimmer in grassy mandalas,
    sheep speckle the mountainside, revolving their jaws with empty eyes,
    horses dance in the warm rain,”
    —Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    “The most considerable difference I note among men is not in their readiness to fall into error, but in their readiness to acknowledge these inevitable lapses.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
