Hard Links

Famous quotes containing the words hard and/or links:

    I broke my heart in two
    So hard I struck.
    What matter? for I know
    That out of rock,
    Out of a desolate source,
    Love leaps upon its course.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    All nationalisms are at heart deeply concerned with names: with the most immaterial and original human invention. Those who dismiss names as a detail have never been displaced; but the peoples on the peripheries are always being displaced. That is why they insist upon their continuity—their links with their dead and the unborn.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
