Famous quotes containing the words frame and/or design:

    From Harmony, from heavenly Harmony
    This universal Frame began:
    From Harmony to Harmony
    Through all the Compass of the Notes it ran,
    The Diapason closing full in Man.
    John Dryden (1631–1700)

    With wonderful art he grinds into paint for his picture all his moods and experiences, so that all his forces may be brought to the encounter. Apparently writing without a particular design or responsibility, setting down his soliloquies from time to time, taking advantage of all his humors, when at length the hour comes to declare himself, he puts down in plain English, without quotation marks, what he, Thomas Carlyle, is ready to defend in the face of the world.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
