The Object

Famous quotes containing the word object:

    “The object of love expands and grows before us to eternity, until it includes all that is lovely, and we become all that can love.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “When the object is perceived as particular and unique and not merely the member of a family, when it appears independent of any general notion and detached from the sanity of a cause, isolated and inexplicable in the light of ignorance, then and only then may it be a source of enchantment.”
    —Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
