Famous quotes containing the words original, gorilla and/or body:

    In the Original Unity of the First Thing lies the Secondary Cause of All Things, with the Germ of their Inevitable Annihilation.

    For a tired man who just found a gorilla in his bed, I think I’m behaving very well.
    —Ruth Rose. Ernest B. Schoedsack. Mr. Young (Regis Toomey)

    We are such docile creatures, normally, that it takes a virus to jolt us out of life’s routine. A couple of days in a fever bed are, in a sense, health-giving; the change in body temperature, the change in pulse rate, and the change of scene have a restorative effect on the system equal to the hell they raise.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
