Famous quotes containing the word outline:

    “It is the business of thought to define things, to find the boundaries; thought, indeed, is a ceaseless process of definition. It is the business of Art to give things shape. Anyone who takes no delight in the firm outline of an object, or in its essential character, has no artistic sense.... He cannot even be nourished by Art. Like Ephraim, he feeds upon the East wind, which has no boundaries.”
    —Vance Palmer (1885–1959)

    “The beginning of an acquaintance whether with persons or things is to get a definite outline of our ignorance.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “One by one objects are defined—
    It quickens: clarity, outline of leaf

    But now the stark dignity of
    entrance—Still, the profound change
    has come upon them: rooted, they
    grip down and begin to awaken”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
