Famous quotes containing the word invent:

    The moose will, perhaps, one day become extinct; but how naturally then, when it exists only as a fossil relic, and unseen as that, may the poet or sculptor invent a fabulous animal with similar branching and leafy horns ... to be the inhabitant of such a forest as this!
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    We know what boredom is: it is a dull
    Impatience or a fierce velleity,
    A champing wish, stalled by our lassitude,
    To make or do. In the strict sense, of course,
    We invent nothing, merely bearing witness
    To what each morning brings again to light:
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)
