Narrow Gauge Line

Famous quotes containing the words narrow and/or line:

    “There’s not a man or woman
    Born under the skies
    Dare match in learning with us two,
    And all day long we have found
    There’s not a thing but love can make
    The world a narrow pound.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Writing fiction has developed in me an abiding respect for the unknown in a human lifetime and a sense of where to look for the threads, how to follow, how to connect, find in the thick of the tangle what clear line persists. The strands are all there: to the memory nothing is ever really lost.
    Eudora Welty (b. 1909)
