Local Opposition

Famous quotes containing the words local and/or opposition:

    “The poet’s eye, in a fine frenzy rolling,
    Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven;
    And as imagination bodies forth
    The forms of things unknown, the poet’s pen
    Turns them to shapes, and gives to airy nothing
    A local habitation and a name.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Husbands and wives generally understand when opposition will be vain.”
    —Jane Austen (1775–1817)
