Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or number:

“...stare into the lake of sunset as it runs
boiling, over the west past all control
rolling and swamps the heartbeat and repeats
sea beyond sea after unbearable suns;
think: poems fixed this landscape: Blake, Donne, Keats.”
—Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

“States strong enough to do good are but few.
Their number would seem limited to three.”
