Glass Attracts

Famous quotes containing the words glass and/or attracts:

“Nor do I try to keep a garden, only
An avocado in a glass of water—”
—James Merrill (b. 1926)

“I love to weigh, to settle, to gravitate toward that which most strongly and rightfully attracts me;Mnot hang by the beam of the scale and try to weigh less,—not suppose a case, but take the case that is; to travel the only path I can, and that on which no power can resist me. It affords me no satisfaction to commence to spring an arch before I have got a solid foundation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
