Secret Keys

Famous quotes containing the words secret and/or keys:

    Is it sin
    To rush into the secret house of death
    Ere death dare come to us?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    And yet we constantly reclaim some part of that primal spontaneity through the youngest among us, not only through their sorrow and anger but simply through everyday discoveries, life unwrapped. To see a child touch the piano keys for the first time, to watch a small body slice through the surface of the water in a clean dive, is to experience the shock, not of the new, but of the familiar revisited as though it were strange and wonderful.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
