Stable/horses

Famous quotes containing the words stable and/or horses:

    Man is not merely the sum of his masks. Behind the shifting face of personality is a hard nugget of self, a genetic gift.... The self is malleable but elastic, snapping back to its original shape like a rubber band. Mental illness is no myth, as some have claimed. It is a disturbance in our sense of possession of a stable inner self that survives its personae.
    Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

    Since then—’tis Centuries—and yet
    Feels shorter than the Day
    I first surmised the Horses Heads
    Were toward Eternity—
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
