Calls

Famous quotes containing the word calls:

    A woman spent all Christmas Day in a telephone box without ringing anyone. If someone comes to phone, she leaves the box, then resumes her place afterwards. No one calls her either, but from a window in the street, someone watched her all day, no doubt since they had nothing better to do. The Christmas syndrome.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    Sir, that much prudence calls for too much worry; I cannot foresee misfortunes so far away.
    Jean Racine (1639–1699)

    In the uttermost meaning of the words, thought is devout, and devotion is thought. Deep calls unto deep.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
