Famous quotes containing the words suspended in, suspended and/or part:
“she drew back a while,
Then, yielding to the irresistible joy,
With frantic gesture and short breathless cry
Folded his frame in her dissolving arms.
Now blackness veiled his dizzy eyes, and night
Involved and swallowed up the vision; sleep,
Like a dark flood suspended in its course,
Rolled back its impulse on his vacant brain.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (17921822)
“Just as a waterfall grows slower and more lightly suspended as it plunges down, so the great man of action tends to act with greater calmness than his tempestuous desires prior to the deed would lead one to expect.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“It is part of the nature of consciousness, of how the mental apparatus works, that free reason is only a very occasional function of peoples thinking and that much of the process is made of reactions as standardized as those of the keys on a typewriter.”
—John Dos Passos (18961970)
