Borges Began

Famous quotes containing the words borges and/or began:

    That one individual should awaken in another memories that belong to still a third is an obvious paradox.
    —Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    He slipped his hand and ran away!
    He hadn’t gone a yard when—Bang!
    With open jaws, a lion sprang,
    And hungrily began to eat
    The boy: beginning at his feet.
    Hilaire Belloc (1870–1953)
