Famous quotes containing the words sat and/or problem:
“What brought them there so far from their home,
Cuchulain that fought night long with the foam,
What says the Clock in the Great Clock Tower?
Niamh that rode on it; lad and lass
That sat so still and played at the chess?
What but heroic wantonness?”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“One thing in any case is certain: man is neither the oldest nor the most constant problem that has been posed for human knowledge.”
