Famous quotes containing the words long, john and/or peter:
“The season developed and matured. Another year’s installment of flowers, leaves, nightingales, thrushes, finches, and such ephemeral creatures, took up their positions where only a year ago others had stood in their place when these were nothing more than germs and inorganic particles. Rays from the sunrise drew forth the buds and stretched them into long stalks, lifted up sap in noiseless streams, opened petals, and sucked out scents in invisible jets and breathings.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
“For beauties from worth arise
Are like the grace of deities,”
—Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)
“No philosopher understands his predecessors until he has re-thought their thought in his own contemporary terms.”
—Sir Peter Frederick Strawson (b. 1919)
