Daily Strip

Famous quotes containing the words daily and/or strip:

    Sleep, nature’s rest, divine tranquillity,
    That brings peace to the mind and chases far
    All care; that soothes our breasts by daily toil
    Over-wearied, and prepares for labor new.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    The annals of this voracious beach! who could write them, unless it were a shipwrecked sailor? How many who have seen it have seen it only in the midst of danger and distress, the last strip of earth which their mortal eyes beheld. Think of the amount of suffering which a single strand had witnessed! The ancients would have represented it as a sea-monster with open jaws, more terrible than Scylla and Charybdis.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
