Famous quotes containing the words table, camp and/or inmate:

    “In New York, pretending to be above the struggle means no seat on the bus and a table next to the kitchen.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “The triumphs of peace have been in some proximity to war. Whilst the hand was still familiar with the sword-hilt, whilst the habits of the camp were still visible in the port and complexion of the gentleman, his intellectual power culminated; the compression and tension of these stern conditions is a training for the finest and softest arts, and can rarely be compensated in tranquil times, except by some analogous vigor drawn from occupations as hardy as war.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The homely Nurse doth all she can
    To make her Foster-child, her Inmate Man,
    Forget the glories he hath known,
    And that imperial palace whence he came.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
