Famous quotes containing the words spiral and/or staircase:

    “What is art,
    But life upon the larger scale, the higher,
    When, graduating up in a spiral line
    Of still expanding and ascending gyres,
    It pushes toward the intense significance
    Of all things, hungry for the Infinite?
    Art’s life,—and where we live, we suffer and toil.”
    —Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

    “To be ashamed of one’s immorality: that is a step on the staircase at whose end one is also ashamed of one’s morality.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
