Free Reeds

Famous quotes containing the words free and/or reeds:

    But that I love the gentle Desdemona,
    I would not my unhousèd free condition
    Put into circumscription and confine
    For the sea’s worth.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Myself now and myself a while ago are indeed two; but when better, I simply cannot say. It would be fine to be old if we traveled only toward improvement. It is a drunkard’s motion, staggering, dizzy, wobbling, or that of reeds that the wind stirs haphazardly as it pleases.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
