Expressly Affirmed

Famous quotes containing the words expressly and/or affirmed:

“There have been heroes for whom this world seemed expressly prepared, as if creation had at last succeeded; whose daily life was the stuff of which our dreams are made, and whose presence enhanced the beauty and ampleness of Nature herself.”

“But the abstract conception
Of private experience at its greatest intensity
Becoming universal, which we call “poetry,”
May be affirmed in verse.”
