Spaces

Famous quotes containing the word spaces:

    Every true man is a cause, a country, and an age; requires infinite spaces and numbers and time fully to accomplish his design;—and posterity seem to follow his steps as a train of clients.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    through the spaces of the dark
    Midnight shakes the memory
    As a madman shakes a dead geranium.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    We should read history as little critically as we consider the landscape, and be more interested by the atmospheric tints and various lights and shades which the intervening spaces create than by its groundwork and composition.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
