Situation Puzzles

Famous quotes containing the words situation and/or puzzles:

“I have proceeded ... to prevent the lapse from ... the point of blending between wakefulness and sleep....

I can survey them with the eye of analysis.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

“Nothing puzzles me more than time and space; and yet nothing troubles me less, as I never think about them.”
