Hat Worn

Famous quotes containing the words hat and/or worn:

    The purity of today will invest us like a breeze,
    Only be hard, spare, ironical: something one can
    Tip one’s hat to and still get some use out of.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    ... continual hard labor deadens the energies of the soul, and benumbs the faculties of the mind; the ideas become confined, the mind barren, and, like the scorching sands of Arabia, produces nothing; or, like the uncultivated soil, brings forth thorns and thistles. Again, continual hard labor irritates our tempers and sours our dispositions; the whole system become worn out with toil and fatigue; nature herself becomes almost exhausted, and we care but little whether we live or die.
    Maria Stewart (1803–1879)
