Ordinary Water

Famous quotes containing the words ordinary and/or water:

“An ordinary man will work every day for a year at shoveling dirt to support his body, or a family of bodies; but he is an extraordinary man who will work a whole day in a year for the support of his soul. Even the priests, men of God, so called, for the most part confess that they work for the support of the body.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Because of neglect, Son,
though well-forged
in affectionate bonds,
Love in time
will trickle away
like water through cupped hands.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
