Obscurity Quotes and Quotations


I give the fight up; let there be an end, A privacy, an obscure nook for me, I want to be forgotten even by God.
Full many a flower is born to blush unseen, And waste its sweetness on the desert air.
How happy is the blameless vestal's lot! The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
How many a rustic Milton has passed by, Stifling the speechless longings of his heart In unremitting drudgery and care! How many a vulgar Cato has compelled His energies, no longer tameless then, To mold a pin, or fabricate a nail!
Thus let me live, unseen, unknown, Thus unlamented let me die; Steal from the world, and not a stone Tell where I lie.


Quote of the Day
I think and think for months, for years. Ninety-nine times the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right.
