Famous quotes containing the words action and/or pillars:
“We have seen the city; it is the gibbous
Mirrored eye of an insect. All things happen
On its balcony and are resumed within,
But the action is the cold, syrupy flow
Of a pageant.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The spirit of truth and the spirit of freedom—these are the pillars of society.”
—Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
