Brushes

Famous quotes containing the word brushes:

    And the Angel told Tom if he’d be a good boy,
    He’d have God for his father & never want joy.

    And so Tom awoke and we rose in the dark
    And got with our bags & our brushes to work.
    Tho’ the morning was cold, Tom was happy & warm,
    So if all do their duty, they need not fear harm.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    Weakness is a better teacher than strength. Weakness must learn to understand the obstacles that strength brushes aside.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Let us shun self-analyzation, self-consciousness, morbidness, affectation, attitudinizing. Let us look ahead as little as possible, keeping our eyes on our brushes and on the world of beauty around us.
    Mariana Griswold Van Rensselaer (1851–1934)
