World Final Held

Famous quotes containing the words world, final and/or held:

    Whatever practical people may say, this world is, after all, absolutely governed by ideas, and very often by the wildest and most hypothetical ideas.

    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    Only in books the flat and final happens,
    Only in dreams we meet and interlock....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Anarchism is the great liberator of man from the phantoms that have held him captive; it is the arbiter and pacifier of the two forces for individual and social harmony.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
