Famous quotes containing the words alpine and/or world:
“I held a bayonet
that was for the earth of your stomach.
The belly button singing its puzzle.

“... I was crying partly because I felt that this was expected of me, partly from genuine repentance, but partly also because of a deeper grief which is peculiar to childhood and not easy to convey: a sense of desolate loneliness and helplessness, of being locked up not only in a hostile world but in a world of good and evil where the rules were such that it was actually not possible for me to keep them.”
—George Orwell (19031950)
