Hour/etymology

Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or etymology:

    Now I will believe
    That there are unicorns; that in Arabia
    There is one tree, the phoenix’ throne, one phoenix
    At this hour reigning there.

    The universal principle of etymology in all languages: words are carried over from bodies and from the properties of bodies to express the things of the mind and spirit. The order of ideas must follow the order of things.
