Larger

Famous quotes containing the word larger:

    “They are not dead! They have but passed
    Beyond the mists that blind us here
    Into the new and larger life
    Of that serener sphere.”
    —John Luckey McCreery (1835–1906)

    “The passion of self-aggrandizement is persistent but plastic; it will never disappear from a vigorous mind, but may become morally higher by attaching itself to a larger conception of what constitutes the self.”
    —Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    “What is art,
    But life upon the larger scale, the higher,
    When, graduating up in a spiral line
    Of still expanding and ascending gyres,
    It pushes toward the intense significance
    Of all things, hungry for the Infinite?
    Art’s life,—and where we live, we suffer and toil.”
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
