Famous quotes containing the words current, line and/or succession:

    “You are the current of the frozen stream,
    Shadow invisible, ambushed and vigilant flame.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “The line it is drawn
    The curse it is cast
    The slow one now
    Will later be fast
    As the present now
    Will later be past
    The order is
    Rapidly fadin’.
    And the first one now
    Will later be last
    For the times they are a-changin’.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    “What is this world of ours? A complex entity subject to sudden changes which all indicate a tendency to destruction; a swift succession of beings which follow one another, assert themselves and disappear; a fleeting symmetry; a momentary order.”
    —Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
