Miserable Mill

Famous quotes containing the words miserable and/or mill:

    We live in a world which is full of misery and ignorance, and the plain duty of each and all of us is to try to make the little corner he can influence somewhat less miserable and somewhat less ignorant than it was when he entered it.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    My temptation is quiet.
    Here at life’s end
    Neither loose imagination,
    Nor the mill of the mind
    Consuming its rag and bone,
    Can make the truth known.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
