Famous quotes containing the words integral and/or curve:

    An island always pleases my imagination, even the smallest, as a small continent and integral portion of the globe. I have a fancy for building my hut on one. Even a bare, grassy isle, which I can see entirely over at a glance, has some undefined and mysterious charm for me.

    The years-heired feature that can
    In curve and voice and eye

    The eternal thing in man,

    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
