Famous quotes containing the words clean and/or works:
“There are other measures of self-respect for a man, than the number of clean shirts he puts on every day.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Every man is in a state of conflict, owing to his attempt to reconcile himself and his relationship with life to his conception of harmony. This conflict makes his soul a battlefield, where the forces that wish this reconciliation fight those that do not and reject the alternative solutions they offer. Works of art are attempts to fight out this conflict in the imaginative world.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
