Famous quotes containing the words open and/or era:
“Manuel showed her his open hand: Look at this finger, how meager it seems, and this one even weaker, and this other one no stronger, and this one all by himself and on his own.
Then he made a fist: But now, is it strong enough, big enough, solid enough? It seems so doesnt it?”
—Jacques Roumain (19071945)
“How many a man has dated a new era in his life from the reading of a book! The book exists for us, perchance, that will explain our miracles and reveal new ones. The at present unutterable things we may find somewhere uttered.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
