Famous quotes containing the words private, approach and/or road:
“All the events which make the annals of the nations are but the shadows of our private experiences.”

“Oh! mystery of man, from what a depth
Proceed thy honours. I am lost, but see
In simple childhood something of the base
On which thy greatness stands; but this I feel,
That from thyself it comes, that thou must give,
Else never canst receive. The days gone by
Return upon me almost from the dawn
Of life: the hiding-places of mans power
Open; I would approach them, but they close.”
—William Wordsworth (17701850)
“My desk, most loyal friend
thank you. Youve been with me on
every road Ive taken.
My scar and my protection.”
