Famous quotes containing the words open and/or diving:
“Speech and silence. We feel safer with a madman who talks than with one who cannot open his mouth.”
—E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)
“A worm is as good a traveler as a grasshopper or a cricket, and a much wiser settler. With all their activity these do not hop away from drought nor forward to summer. We do not avoid evil by fleeing before it, but by rising above or diving below its plane; as the worm escapes drought and frost by boring a few inches deeper.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
