Heads

Famous quotes containing the word heads:

    There are old heads in the world who cannot help me by their example or advice to live worthily and satisfactorily to myself; but I believe that it is in my power to elevate myself this very hour above the common level of my life.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    No matter how deep and dark your pit, how dank your shroud,
    Their heads are heroically unbloody and unbowed.
    Ogden Nash (1902–1971)

    As some heads cannot carry much wine, so it would seem that I cannot bear so much society as you can. I have an immense appetite for solitude, like an infant for sleep, and if I don’t get enough of it this year, I shall cry all the next.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
