Reached

Famous quotes containing the word reached:

    For this is what America is all about. It is the uncrossed desert and the unclimbed ridge. It is the star that is not reached and the harvest that is sleeping in the unplowed ground.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    It had been a moving, tranquil apotheosis, immersed in the transfiguring sunset glow of decline and decay and extinction. An old family, already grown too weary and too noble for life and action, had reached the end of its history, and its last utterances were sounds of music: a few violin notes, full of the sad insight which is ripeness for death.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    A real fox calls sour not only those grapes that he cannot reach but also those that he has reached and taken away from others.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
