Famous quotes containing the word careful:
“I can’t earn my own living. I could never make anything turn into money. It’s like making fires. A careful assortment of paper, shavings, faggots and kindling nicely tipped with pitch will never light for me. I have never been present when a cigarette butt, extinct, thrown into a damp and isolated spot, started a conflagration in the California woods.”
—Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)
“Be careful then how you live, not as unwise people but as wise, making the most of the time, because the days are evil.”
—Bible: New Testament, Ephesians 5:15-16.
“O Death, rock me asleep,
Bring me to quiet rest,
Let pass my weary guiltless ghost
Out of my careful breast.”
—George Boleyn (d. 1536)
