Permanent Static Display

Famous quotes containing the words permanent and/or display:

    The generations of men run on in the tide of time,
    But leave their destined lineaments permanent for ever & ever.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    Life is extraordinarily suave and sweet with certain natural, witty, affectionate people who have unusual distinction and are capable of every vice, but who make a display of none in public and about whom no one can affirm they have a single one. There is something supple and secret about them. Besides, their perversity gives spice to their most innocent occupations, such as taking a walk in the garden at night.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
