Famous quotes containing the words nearest and dearest, nearest and/or dearest:

    Why, Harry, do I tell thee of my foes,
    Which art my nearest and dearest enemy?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    A written word is the choicest of relics. It is something at once more intimate with us and more universal than any other work of art. It is the work of art nearest to life itself. It may be translated into every language, and not only be read but actually breathed from all human lips;Mnot be represented on canvas or in marble only, but be carved out of the breath of life itself. The symbol of an ancient man’s thought becomes a modern man’s speech.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    There is not any book
    Or face of dearest look
    That I would not turn from now
    To go into the unknown
    I must enter, and leave, alone,
    I know not how.
    Edward Thomas (1878–1917)
