Famous quotes containing the words ports and/or acts:

    “O polished perturbation! golden care!
    That keep’st the ports of slumber open wide
    To many a watchful night.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I fear I agree with your friend in not liking all sermons. Some of them, one has to confess, are rubbish: but then I release my attention from the preacher, and go ahead in any line of thought he may have started: and his after-eloquence acts as a kind of accompaniment—like music while one is reading poetry, which often, to me, adds to the effect.”
    —Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
