Breaking

Famous quotes containing the word breaking:

“Yet herein will I imitate the sun,
Who doth permit the base contagious clouds
To smother up his beauty from the world,
That when he please again to be himself,
Being wanted, he may be more wondered at
By breaking through the foul and ugly mists
Of vapors that did seem to strangle him”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“And over all the sky—the sky! far, far out of reach,
studded, breaking out, the eternal stars.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

“[T]here is no breaking out of the intentional vocabulary by explaining its members in other terms.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
