Grand Circle

Famous quotes containing the words grand and/or circle:

“Unpretending mediocrity is good, and genius is glorious; but a weak flavor of genius in an essentially common person is detestable. It spoils the grand neutrality of a commonplace character, as the rinsings of an unwashed wine-glass spoil a draught of fair water.”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

“Every few years something new breaks into the circle of my thoughts.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
