Famous quotes containing the words reached and/or final:

    “Not every end is a goal. The end of a melody is not its goal: but nonetheless, had the melody not reached its end it would not have reached its goal either. A parable.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “The self-explorer, whether he wants to or not, becomes the explorer of everything else. He learns to see himself, but suddenly, provided he was honest, all the rest appears, and it is as rich as he was, and, as a final crowning, richer.”
    —Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
