Famous quotes containing the word searching:

    “Our graves that hide us from the searching sun
    Are like drawn curtains when the play is done.
    Thus march we, playing, to our latest rest,
    Only, we die in earnest—that’s no jest.”
    —Sir Walter Raleigh (1552?–1618)

    “This searching and doubting and vacillating where nothing is clear but the arrogance of quest. I, too, had such noble ideas when I was still a boy.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    “And I cannot find the place
    Where his paw is the snare!
    Little One! Oh, Little One!
    I am searching everywhere!”
    —James Kenneth Stephens (1882–1950)
