Famous quotes containing the words price, sealed and/or bid:
“To me a book is a message from the gods to mankind; or, if not, should never be published at all.... A message from the gods should be delivered at once. It is damnably blasphemous to talk about the autumn season and so on. How dare the author or publisher demand a price for doing his duty, the highest and most honourable to which a man can be called?”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
“Retreat was out of hope,—
Behind, a sealed route,
Eternity’s white flag before,
And God at every gate.”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
“Onely a little more
I have to write,
Then I’ll give o’er,
And bid the world Good-night.”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
