Famous quotes containing the words free, open and/or source:

    Women want to serve, and this is where their happiness lies: but the free spirit does not want to be served, and this is where his happiness lies.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The child ... stands upon a place apart, a little spectator of the world, before whom men and women come and go, events fall out, years open their slow story and are noted or let go as his mood chances to serve them. The play touches him not. He but looks on, thinks his own thought, and turns away, not even expecting his cue to enter the plot and speak. He waits,—he knows not for what.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    As a means of contrast with the sublime, the grotesque is, in our view, the richest source that nature can offer.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
