Lines Stopping

Famous quotes containing the words lines and/or stopping:

“Who will in fairest book of Nature know
How virtue may best lodged in beauty be,
Let him but learn of love to read in thee,
Stella, those fair lines which true goodness show.
There shall he find all vices’ overthrow,
Not by rude force, but sweetest sovereignty
Of reason,”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

“Would not some lightning flash of vision sear people’s consciousness into life again? What was the good of stopping the war if armies continued?”
