Famous quotes containing the words high, profile and/or escapes:

    [F]or women, like tradesmen, draw in the injudicious to buy their goods by the high value they themselves set upon them.... They endeavor strongly to fix in the minds of their enamoratos their own high value, and then contrive as much as possible to make them believe that they have so many purchasers at hand that the goods—if they do not make haste—will all be gone.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    Nature centres into balls,
    And her proud ephemerals,
    Fast to surface and outside,
    Scan the profile of the sphere;
    Knew they what that signified,
    A new genesis were here.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    In this world without quiet corners, there can be no easy escapes from history, from hullabaloo, from terrible, unquiet fuss.
    Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
