Body Lice

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or lice:

“Industrial societies turn their citizens into image-junkies; it is the most irresistible form of mental pollution. Poignant longings for beauty, for an end to probing below the surface, for a redemption and celebration of the body of the world. Ultimately, having an experience becomes identical with taking a photograph of it.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

“He who has many lice doesn’t scratch; he who has many debts doesn’t worry.”
—Chinese proverb.
