Double Hook

Famous quotes containing the words double and/or hook:

    “The Cossack eats Poland,
    Like stolen fruit;
    Her last noble is ruined,
    Her last poet mute:
    Straight, into double band
    The victors divide;
    Half for freedom strike and stand;—
    The astonished Muse finds thousands at her side.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “And yet—it is not beauty that inspires the deepest passion. Beauty without grace is the hook without the bait. Beauty, without expression, tires.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
