Famous quotes containing the words shape and/or form:
“Thus Kent, O princes, bids you all adieu;
He’ll shape his old course in a country new.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A true poem is distinguished not so much by a felicitous expression, or any thought it suggests, as by the atmosphere which surrounds it. Most have beauty of outline merely, and are striking as the form and bearing of a stranger; but true verses come toward us indistinctly, as the very breath of all friendliness, and envelop us in their spirit and fragrance.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
