Famous quotes containing the word intense:
“If we confine ourselves to a general and distant reflection on the ills of human life, that can have no effect to prepare us for them. If by close and intense meditation we render them present and intimate to us, that is the true secret for poisoning all our pleasures, and rendering us perpetually miserable.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“In vision, they speak
with another race,
more beautiful, more intense than this.
I could laugh
more beautiful, more intense?”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
