gates

The world is all gates, all opportunities, strings of tension waiting to be struck. -Ralph Waldo Emerson


Sunsets are so beautiful that they almost seem as if we were looking through the gates of heaven. -John Lubbock


My paintings always feature trails that dissolve into mysterious areas, patches of light that lead the eye around corners, pathways, open gates, etc. -Thomas Kinkade


Railway termini are our gates to the glorious and the unknown.  Through them we pass out into adventure and sunshine, to them, alas! we return. -E.M. Forster


Hateful to me as are the gates of hell, Is he he who, hiding one thing in his heart, Utters another. -Homer


The enemy is within the gates; it is with our own folly, our own criminality that we have to contend. -Marcus Tullius Cicero
