Famous quotes containing the words comic and/or book:
“Nature is a setting that fits equally well a comic or a mourning piece. In good health, the air is a cordial of incredible virtue. Crossing a bare common, in snow puddles, at twilight, under a clouded sky, without having in my thoughts any occurrence of special good fortune, I have enjoyed a perfect exhilaration. I am glad to the brink of fear.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I know what say the fathers wise,—
The Book itself before me lies,
Old Chrysostom, best Augustine.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
