Famous quotes containing the words part and/or passion:
“This spending of the best part of one’s life earning money in order to enjoy a questionable liberty during the least valuable part of it reminds me of the Englishman who went to India to make a fortune first, in order that he might return to England and live the life of a poet. He should have gone up garret at once.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“And she, by passion once demented
MThat woman out of Botticelli—
She brews and bottles, unfermented,
The stupid and abiding jelly.”
—Peter De Vries (b. 1910)
