Double Springs

Famous quotes containing the words double and/or springs:

    To be a woman and a writer
    is double mischief, for
    the world will slight her
    who slights “the servile house,” and who would rather
    make odes than beds.
    Dilys Laing (1906–1960)

    For it is the suffering flesh, it is suffering, it is death, that lovers perpetuate upon the earth. Love is at once the brother, son, and father of death, which is its sister, mother, and daughter. And thus it is that in the depth of love there is a depth of eternal despair, out of which springs hope and consolation.
    Miguel de Unamuno (1864–1936)
