Fissure Opened

Famous quotes containing the words fissure and/or opened:

    that part of him that was left behind convulsed in undignified
    haste,
    Writhed like lightning, and was gone
    Into the black hole, the earth-lipped fissure in the wall-front,
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The embattled gates to equal rights indeed opened up for modern women, but I sometimes think to myself: “That is not what I meant by freedom—it is only ‘social progress.’”
    Helene Deutsch (1884–1982)
