Unknown. Sister

Famous quotes containing the words unknown and/or sister:

    Only at his maximum does an individual surpass all his derivative elements, and become purely himself. And most people never get there. In his own pure individuality a man surpasses his father and mother, and is utterly unknown to them.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    For she has made me the laily worm
    That lies at the fit o’ the tree,
    An’ my sister Masery she’s made
    The machrel of the sea.
    —Unknown. The Laily Worm and the Machrel of the Sea (l. 5–8)
