Famous quotes containing the words person and/or singular:
“This age-old truth I to thee impart
Act according to the dictates of your art
Because if you don’t no one else is going to
And that person isn’t likely to be you.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The spider-mind acquires a faculty of memory, and, with it, a singular skill of analysis and synthesis, taking apart and putting together in different relations the meshes of its trap. Man had in the beginning no power of analysis or synthesis approaching that of the spider, or even of the honey-bee; but he had acute sensibility to the higher forces.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
