Famous quotes containing the words sand and/or barrier:
“Unhappy is the man for evermair
That tills the sand and sawis in the air;
But twice unhappier is he, I lairn,
That feidis in his hairt a mad desire
And follows on a woman thro the fire,
Led by a blind and teachit by a bairn.”
—Mark Alexander Boyd (1563–1601)
“To say that a thing has never yet been done among men is to erect a barrier stronger than reason, stronger than discussion.”
