“Patience – an ocean confining its waters between its shores.”
Mariana Fulger
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
Anais Nin
“On with dance, let joy be unconfined, is my motto; whether there's any dance to dance or any joy to unconfined.”
Mark Twain
“With a library you are free, not confined by temporary political climates. It is the most democratic of institutions because no one - but no one at all - can tell you what to read and when and how.”
Doris Lessing
“One whose knowledge is confined to books and whose wealth is in the possession of others, can use neither his knowledge nor wealth when the need for them arises.”
Chanakya
“Stone walls confine a tinker; cold iron binds a witch; but a musician's music can never be fettered, for it lives first in her heart and mind.”
Charles de Lint
“'Twas whispered in heaven, 'twas muttered in hell, / And echo caught faintly the sound as it fell; / On the confines of earth 'twas permitted to rest, / And the depths of the ocean its presence confessed.”
