Greatest Elements

Famous quotes containing the words greatest and/or elements:

    The greatest part of a writer’s time is spent in reading, in order to write; a man will turn over half a library to make one book.

    Nature confounds her summer distinctions at this season. The heavens seem to be nearer the earth. The elements are less reserved and distinct. Water turns to ice, rain to snow. The day is but a Scandinavian night. The winter is an arctic summer.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
