Expansive Force

Famous quotes containing the words expansive and/or force:

    “Spring’s an expansive time: yet I don’t trust
    March with its peck of dust,
    Nor April with its rainbow-crowned brief showers,
    Nor even May, whose flowers
    One frost may wither thro’ the sunless hours.”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    “Here undoubtedly lies the chief poetic energy:Min the force of imagination that pierces or exalts the solid fact, instead of floating among cloud-pictures.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
