Famous quotes containing the words soul and/or blade:
“For the soul of Philip Sparrow
That was late slain at Carrow,
Among the Nunnes Black.”
—John Skelton (1460?–1529)
“When he painted a road, the roadmakers were there in his imagination. When he painted the turned earth of a ploughed field, the gesture of the blade turning the earth was included in his own act. Wherever he looked he saw the labour of existence; and this labour, recognized as such, was what constituted reality for him.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
