True Belief

Famous quotes containing the words true and/or belief:

    “Though shoulder, bosom, lip, and knee
    Are praised in every kind of art,
    Here is love’s true anatomy:
    His rib is gone; he’ll have her heart.”
    —John Hollander (b. 1929)

    “What
    One believes is what matters. Ecstatic identities
    Between one’s self and the weather and the things
    Of the weather are the belief in one’s element,
    The casual reunions, the long-pondered
    Surrenders, the repeated sayings that
    There is nothing more and that it is enough....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
