How came it, one asks in wonder, that after the short space of fifteen years a world-wide movement depended on a single life, that the infinitudes of 1789 lived on only in the form, and by the pleasure, of the First Consul?
"The Life of Napoleon I (Volumes, 1 and 2)"
John Holland Rose
We need but look, To learn that stars are worlds Swung out upon infinitudes of space.
"Porzia"
Cale Young Rice
The sky was cloudless, the sea without a ripple; others might have thought them merely two blue surfaces, the one above the other, but we-we who heard without the need of words, we who could evoke between these two infinitudes the illusions that nourish youth,-we pressed each other's hands at every change in the sheet of water or the sheets of air, for we took those slight phenomena as the visible translation of our double thought.
"A Drama on the Seashore"
Honore de Balzac
