Famous quotes containing the words effects of, effects, killings, canyon and/or lake:

    Each of us, even the lowliest and most insignificant among us, was uprooted from his innermost existence by the almost constant volcanic upheavals visited upon our European soil and, as one of countless human beings, I can’t claim any special place for myself except that, as an Austrian, a Jew, writer, humanist and pacifist, I have always been precisely in those places where the effects of the thrusts were most violent.
    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    not that horror was not, not that the killings did not continue,
    not that I thought there was to be no more despair,
    but that as if transparent all disclosed
    an otherness that was blessèd, that was bliss.
    I saw Paradise in the dust of the street.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    In a world that holds books and babies and canyon trails, why should one condemn oneself to live day-in, day-out with people one does not like, and sell oneself to chaperone and correct them?
    Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)

    Wordsworth went to the Lakes, but he was never a lake poet. He found in stones the sermons he had already hidden there.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
