Dry Tires

Famous quotes containing the words dry and/or tires:

And so we went with pail and can
Across the fields behind the house
To seek the brook if still it ran....”

“Sickness disgusts us with death, and we wish to get well, which is a way of wishing to live. But weakness and suffering, with manifold bodily woes, soon discourage the invalid from trying to regain ground: he tires of those respites which are but snares, of that faltering strength, those ardors cut short, and that perpetual lying in wait for the next attack.”
—Marguerite Yourcenar (1903–1987)
