Famous quotes containing the words student and/or body:
“In the student sensuality is a sluggish habit of mind.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“With my whole body I taste these peaches,
I touch them and smell them. Who speaks?
I absorb them as the Angevine
Absorbs Anjou. I see them as a lover sees,
As a young lover sees the first buds of spring
And as the black Spaniard plays his guitar.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
