Famous quotes containing the words final and/or standing:

    “The place became full of a watchful intentness now; for when other things sank brooding to sleep the heath appeared slowly to awake and listen. Every night its Titanic form seemed to await something; but it had waited thus, unmoved, during so many centuries, through the crises of so many things, that it could only be imagined to await one last crisis—the final overthrow.”
    —Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    “Capitán profundo, capitán geloso,
    Ask us not to sing standing in the sun,
    Hairy-backed and hump-armed,
    Flat-ribbed and big-bagged.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
