Ordinary

Famous quotes containing the word ordinary:

“Murder in the murderer is no such ruinous thought as poets and romancers will have it; it does not unsettle him, or fright him from his ordinary notice of trifles: it is an act quite easy to be contemplated, but in its sequel, it turns out to be a horrible jangle and confounding of all relations.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“The Ordinary Life: the misery seems planned, the happiness accidental.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“Youth demands more than ordinary life. Age clings to it.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
