Famous quotes containing the words unrolled, linked and/or list:
“And he unrolled his feathers
And rowed him softer home
Than Oars divide the Ocean,
Too silver for a seam
Or Butterflies, off Banks of Noon
Leap, plashless as they swim.”
—Emily Dickinson (18301886)
“The sensual and spiritual are linked together by a mysterious bond, sensed by our emotions, though hidden from our eyes. To this double nature of the visible and invisible worldto the profound longing for the latter, coupled with the feeling of the sweet necessity for the former, we owe all sound and logical systems of philosophy, truly based on the immutable principles of our nature, just as from the same source arise the most senseless enthusiasms.”
—Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (17671835)
“Lovers, forget your love,
And list to the love of these,
She a window flower,
And he a winter breeze.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
