Living Loves

Famous quotes containing the words living and/or loves:

    And then he heard some old forgotten talk
    At a short distance like a hundred miles
    Filling the air with its secrecy,
    And was afraid of all the living air....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    In my dealing with my child, my Latin and Greek, my accomplishments and my money stead me nothing; but as much soul as I have avails. If I am wilful, he sets his will against mine, one for one, and leaves me, if I please, the degradation of beating him by my superiority of strength. But if I renounce my will, and act for the soul, setting that up as umpire between us two, out of his young eyes looks the same soul; he reveres and loves with me.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
