Famous quotes containing the words web and/or creature:
“For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“That man is the noblest creature may also be inferred from the fact that no other creature has yet contested this claim.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
