Starting Point

Famous quotes containing the words starting and/or point:

    soon the birds and ancients
    Will be starting to arrive, bereaving points
    South.
    Louise Glick (b. 1943)

    When we are in love, the sentiment is too great to be contained whole within us; it radiates out to our beloved, finds in her a surface which stops it, forces it to return to its point of departure, and it is this rebound of our own tenderness which we call the other’s affection and which charms us more than when it first went out because we do not see that it comes from us.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
