Shutter Traverse Time

Famous quotes containing the words shutter, traverse and/or time:

    The rays which stream through the shutter will be no longer remembered when the shutter is wholly removed.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I look back at it amid the rain
    For the very last time; for my sand is sinking,
    And I shall traverse old love’s domain
    Never again.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    Today we all speak, if not the same tongue, the same universal language. There is no one center, and time has lost its former coherence: East and West, yesterday and tomorrow exist as a confused jumble in each one of us. Different times and different spaces are combined in a here and now that is everywhere at once.
    Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
