Beneath

Famous quotes containing the word beneath:

“Now I am light, now I fly, now I see myself beneath myself, now a god dances through me.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“Toll for the brave—
The brave! that are no more:
All sunk beneath the wave,
Fast by their native shore.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)

“It especially helps if you know that we’re all faking our adulthood—even your parents and their parents. Beneath these adult trappings—in our president, in our parents, in you and me—lurk the emotions of a child. If we know that only about ourselves, we become infantile; if we understand that about everybody, then we have nothing to be ashamed of—unless, of course, we go around acting like a child and expecting everyone else to act like grownups.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
