Famous quotes containing the words wave and/or world:
“And his wish is intimacy,
Intimater intimacy,
And a stricter privacy;
The impossible shall yet be done,
And, being two, shall still be one.
As the wave breaks to foam on shelves,
Then runs into a wave again,
So lovers melt their sundered selves,
Yet melted would be twain.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“What staggers me is not the persistence of illusion, but the persistence of the world in the face of illusion.”
—A. G. Mojtabai (b. 1937)
