Broken Mirror

Famous quotes containing the words broken and/or mirror:

    The others died, the luck of it blurting through them.
    I could not, I was a silly broken umbrella
    and oblivion would not kiss me. For three days it
    was thus.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    If intellection and knowledge were mere passion from without, or the bare reception of extraneous and adventitious forms, then no reason could be given at all why a mirror or looking-glass should not understand; whereas it cannot so much as sensibly perceive those images which it receives and reflects to us.
    Ralph J. Cudworth (1617–1688)
