Famous quotes containing the words core and/or world:
“The threadbare trees, so poor and thin,
They are no wealthier than I;
But with as brave a core within
They rear their boughs to the October sky.
Poor knights they are which bravely wait
The charge of Winter’s cavalry,
Keeping a simple Roman state,
Discumbered of their Persian luxury.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Whether I get on in the world is a question; but I certainly don’t get on very well with the world.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
