Famous quotes containing the words returning, damaged and/or condition:
“Earth in beauty dressed
Awaits returning spring.
All true love must die,
Alter at the best
Into some lesser thing.
Prove that I lie.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“The Christian fear of the pagan outlook has damaged the whole consciousness of man.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“In strict science, all persons underlie the same condition of an infinite remoteness. Shall we fear to cool our love by mining for the metaphysical foundation of this elysian temple? Shall I not be as real as the things I see? If I am, I shall not fear to know them for what they are.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
