Springs

Famous quotes containing the word springs:

    Out of the slimy mud of words, out of the sleet and hail of verbal imprecisions,
    Approximate thoughts and feelings, words that have taken the place of thoughts and feelings,
    There springs the perfect order of speech, and the beauty of incantation.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    All real freedom springs from necessity, for it can be gained only through the exercise of the individual will, and that will can be roused to energetic action only by the force of necessity acting upon it from the outside to spur it to effort.
    Anna C. Brackett (1836–1911)

    And since to look at things in bloom
    Fifty springs are little room,
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
