Famous quotes containing the words pillow and/or book:
“Weariness
Can snore upon the flint, when resty sloth
Finds the down pillow hard.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“A book should contain pure discoveries, glimpses of terra firma, though by shipwrecked mariners, and not the art of navigation by those who have never been out of sight of land. They must not yield wheat and potatoes, but must themselves be the unconstrained and natural harvest of their author’s lives.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
