Companion Pieces

Famous quotes containing the words companion and/or pieces:

    Ambition is an uncomfortable companion many times. He creates a discontent with present surroundings and achievements; he is never satisfied but always pressing forward to better things in the future. Restless, energetic, purposeful, it is ambition that makes of the creature a real man.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    Great lovers lie in Hell, the stubborn ones
    Infatuate of the flesh upon the bones;
    Stuprate, they rend each other when they kiss,
    The pieces kiss again, no end to this.
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)
