Lock Haven

Famous quotes containing the words lock and/or haven:

    Time, which shows so vacant, indivisible, and divine in its coming, is slit and peddled into trifles and tatters. A door is to be painted, a lock to be repaired. I want wood, or oil, or meal, or salt; the house smokes, or I have a headache; then the tax; and an affair to be transacted with a man without heart or brains; and the stinging recollection of an injurious or very awkward word,—these eat up the hours.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The dry eucalyptus seeks god in the rainy cloud.
    Professor Eucalyptus of New Haven seeks him
    In New Haven with an eye that does not look
    Beyond the object.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
