Touch Surface

Famous quotes containing the words touch and/or surface:

“Such body lovers have,
Such exacting breath,
That they touch or sigh.
Every touch they give,
Love is nearer death.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“We say justly that the weak person is flat, for, like all flat substances, he does not stand in the direction of his strength, that is, on his edge, but affords a convenient surface to put upon. He slides all the way through life.... But the brave man is a perfect sphere, which cannot fall on its flat side and is equally strong every way.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
