Reading Passages

Famous quotes containing the words reading and/or passages:

“The truth in a calm world,
In which there is no other meaning, itself

Is calm, itself is summer and night, itself
Is the reader leaning late and reading there.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“You ever
Have wished the sleeping of this business, never desired
It to be stirred, but oft have hindered, oft
The passages made toward it.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
