Famous quotes containing the words john and/or rodriguez:

    I do not wish to see John ever again,—I mean him who is dead,—but that other, whom only he would have wished to see, or to be, of whom he was the imperfect representative. For we are not what we are, nor do we treat or esteem each other for such, but for what we are capable of being.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I write poetry in order to live more fully.
    —Judith Rodriguez (b. 1936)
