Quote by Dag Hammarskjold
The breaking wave and the muscle as it contracts obey the same law

The breaking wave and the muscle as it contracts obey the same law. Delicate line gathers the bodys total strength in a bold balance. Shall my soul meet so severe a curve, journeying on its way to form? – Dag Hammarskjold
