Famous quotes containing the word thought:

    “Such thought such though have I that hold it tight
    Till meditation master all its parts,

    To where the damned have howled away their hearts,
    And where the blessed dance....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “I do not share the gloomy thought that Negroes in America are doomed to be stomped out bodaciously, nor even shackled to the bottom of things. Of course some of them will be tromped out, and some will always be at the bottom, keeping company with other bottom-folks.”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
