Famous quotes containing the word lines:

    “GOETHE, raised o’er joy and strife,
    Drew the firm lines of Fate and Life,
    And brought Olympian wisdom down
    To court and mar, to gown and town,
    Stooping, his finger wrote in clay
    The open secret of to-day.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
