Plucking Point

Famous quotes containing the words plucking and/or point:

    If we didn’t live venturously, plucking the wild goat by the beard, and trembling over precipices, we should never be depressed, I’ve no doubt; but already should be faded, fatalistic and aged.

    Where is the point at which the merely individual
    Explosion breaks...?
